Answer to Question 1

Adequate training for those who implement applied behavior analysis procedures is vital. While behavioral
principles seem easy to understand, implementation of behavioral change procedures are often not so simple. Therefore, it is important that those who apply behavioral change principles receive adequate training. If adequate training is not provided there is an increased risk of harm to the individual targeted behavior change or to the community.
