Om episode
Somehow we managed to go 200+ episodes without ever directly discussing one of the oldest ABA procedures, incidental teaching. So, let’s make up for lost time by reviewing almost 50 years of articles on incidental teaching. Well, more like one article in almost every decade since Hart and Risley’s original findings. We’ll discuss how the definition of incidental teaching has changed over time, when incidental teaching may not be your first treatment choice, and how to get your friends to share the best toys.
