Reg Reynolds is an author with a Ph.D. in psychology. I’ve known about Reg for a long time, and he contacted me shortly after I wrote my first book. Reg has written quite a few books and the one most in line with what my audience would be interested in is called “Teaching Children with Autism: An ABA Primer”. Reg has since retired, but I think his work and perspective on the field of disabilities and education is very valuable to us all. Our conversation includes a discussion on changes we’ve seen over the years in terms of education and parenting, especially around disabilities and handling behavior challenges.
Even before Reg was working in the field of ABA, he was paying attention to it. Here, he shares his thoughts on where things have gotten better or worse in our approach as practitioners as well as how he took an interest in ABA. We walk through what inspired Reg to write his book, his thoughts on my work and the 7 Steps, the importance of parent training and involvement, the concept of mini consequences, and the role of control in behavior analysis.
