Applied behavior analysis Characteristics Technological
Baer, Wolf, and Risley use the word technological to describe the amount of explanation necessary for a treatment. A behavioral intervention must be explained very well. If an intervention is not explained well it is not technological. Anyone with the proper training who reads a treatment plan should be able to do the intervention and get the same results. A treatment plan must define the behavior being studied and all of the things that could happen during the behavioral intervention. ABA relies on technological treatments because they are universal. Universal means that they can be used in different places by different people and get the same results.
