Applied Behavior Analysis, Third Edition by John O. Cooper, Timothy E. Heron, and William L. Heward is the most comprehensive, authoritative, and widely used applied behavior analysis textbook in the world — the definitive reference for students, practitioners, and researchers in behavior analysis, special education, psychology, and related fields. Published by Pearson, this landmark text provides an accurate, comprehensive, and contemporary description of ABA principles, concepts, and procedures.
This text offers a complete description of the principles and procedures for changing and analyzing socially important behavior, with a focus on the three interrelated domains of the science of behavior: theoretical, basic research, and applied research. The 3rd Edition features coverage of advances across all three domains and adds two new chapters: Chapter 19 on Equivalence-based Instruction and Chapter 20 on Engineering Emergent Learning with Nonequivalence Relations — reflecting the most current developments in behavior analytic science and practice.
Updated and new content addresses negative reinforcement (Ch. 12), motivation (Ch. 16), verbal behavior (Ch. 18), functional behavioral assessment (Ch. 27), and ethics (Ch. 31). Critically, the content of the 3rd Edition is now connected to the BCBA® and BCABA® Behavior Analyst Task List, 5th Edition — making this the essential preparation resource for candidates pursuing Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) certification and Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst (BCaBA) certification.
Essential for graduate programs in applied behavior analysis, special education, autism spectrum disorders, and behavioral health, and for professionals preparing for BCBA and BCaBA certification examinations. The gold standard ABA reference for every behavior analyst, educator, and clinician working with individuals with autism spectrum disorder, developmental disabilities, and behavioral challenges.
