Changing the Criterion ABA

04/08/2026

Some children won’t tell you they’re overwhelmed…
but their world feels louder, brighter, and heavier than ours.

💔 Imagine feeling everything —
and not having the words to explain it.

They’re not ignoring you.
They’re not being difficult.

👉 They’re trying to cope.

This April 2, don’t just “be aware.”
Be gentle. Be patient. Be understanding.

Because behind the silence…
there’s a child who feels everything.

💙 Go blue for them.

Today is World Autism Awareness Day.

Right now,
1 in 20 boys,
1 in 70 girls,
are diagnosed with autism.

That’s not rare.
That’s our kids.
Our reality.

It’s routines that have to be followed just right.
It’s learning new ways to communicate.
It’s advocating when no one else understands.

It’s hard days.
Beautiful ones.
And everything in between.

So today isn’t just about awareness,
it’s about acceptance.
It’s about understanding.
It’s about making the world a little kinder
for every child who experiences it differently.

Changing Criterion design ⬇️

This is a type of experimental design in which some dimension of a behavior is systematically changed through the use of reinforcement and pre-set criterion changes. We use this type of design to evaluate the effects of an intervention that is applied in a stepwise pattern for one single behavior.
