Editorial Review: Product Description: Behavioral Detectives: A Staff Training Exercise Book in Applied Behavior Analysis allows readers in on case conferences discussing behavioral issues in developmental disabilities and applied behavior analysis. Short stories are presented, always with a clinical mistake present. The job of the reader is to discover the mistake. The reader can then turn to the back to see if (s)he was correct, learning about applied behavior analysis along the way. Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Behavioral DetectivesThis book examines several behavioral case studies in a user-friendly format. The content of this book is enlightening and absorbing, while laced with the sardonic sense of humor of Dr. Newman. As a speech-language pathologist who knew close to nothing about ABA, I would wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone involved with a child on the spectrum--or for anyone who simply would like a good read. Rating: - Outstanding!Dr. Newman has done it again. His expert first hand knowledge in the Autism field is evident again with another outstanding work.

The format allows the reader to examine a case study, develop their own hypothesis, and then flip to another section for the "solution", thus creating the ultimate training tool. What is great about this book is that it is interactive training on paper. Fifty-nine cases are included which are interesting and easy to read. It's a fun way to learn. More importantly, you are learning practical ... Read More Rating: - Wonderful resource for parents and professionals!What an ingenious idea! This is an easy yet intellectual read for the whole community who services, advocates or parent a child on the spectrum. Thank you Dr. Newman for another wonderful addition to the collection of "must haves" on the shelves of those in our field.
