Since medication for ADHD isn't the only treatment in town, what behavioral interventions can help students take part in the important parts of learning? Like staying on-task with schoolwork for instance. This week we review how functional analyses, good peer models, and sounds of the cosmos can decrease off-task behavior in children. And are you a behavior analyst with no experience working with individuals with ADHD? Let our introductory summary get you started on understanding this chronic disorder. And, in the spirit of the research, we actually manage to keep our typical tangents to a minimum. Like maybe only 10% of the running time if you don't count Jackie and Rob making white-noise sound effects.
