12 days of PFA & SBT

Abstract This training series, “12 Days of PFA and SBT,” offers a practical, research-based walkthrough of the foundational and advanced concepts of Practical Functional Assessment (PFA) and Skill-Based Treatment (SBT). Using key peer-reviewed articles, each session distills findings into practitioner-relevant insights and guides behavior analysts in tailoring these procedures to individual clients. Emphasis is placed on efficiency, social validity, individualized functional analyses, shaping procedures, and the integration of trauma-informed care. The course also showcases innovations such as the single-session IICA, the use of synthesized contingencies, and application with diverse populations.
