March 2023 Preview

Break out your old-timey woolen bathing suit because you’ll need to cool off after a jumbo month of new episodes. We’ve got guests to fill out the whole month including Dr. Ivy Chong discussing the process of developing a means of measuring outcomes of health care for autism treatment, Dr. Haley Steinhauser and Alex Kishbaugh reviewing their article reviewing rethinking compliance to better promote individual assent, and self-advocacy skills, and Alan Haberman dropping the latest Book Club read to join our continued review of past research on conversion therapy and how behavior analysis can own up to old mistakes (and avoid more in the future!). Finally, this extra-long month comes to a close by reviewing what to do when your functional analysis fails. Did someone say “idiosyncratic variables”? No? Don’t worry: We will.
