  • CentralReach "ABA On Call" Season 8 Ep 3: Adventures in AI with Kelly King
    Mar 26 2026
    This podcast episode explores the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into applied behavior analysis practice, featuring Kelly King, BCBA, Manager of Clinical AI Governance at CentralReach. The discussion highlights the evolution of AI technologies, including large language models, and their application in clinical workflows, such as documentation and decision support. Emphasis is placed on ethical considerations, including data privacy, avoidance of overreliance on AI outputs, and the importance of maintaining human oversight in clinical judgment. The episode addresses risks such as hallucinated outputs, inappropriate data input (e.g., protected health information), and the need for behavior analysts to develop AI literacy as part of their professional competence. This content aligns with the BACB Ethics Code by focusing on responsible use of technology, protection of client confidentiality, and maintaining professional competence.

  • CentralReach "ABA On Call" Season 8 Ep 2: Parenting Conversations in Behavior Analysis
    Feb 25 2026

    This episode features a discussion focused on equipping behavior analysts with practical strategies for communicating effectively with parents about core behavioral principles. Rick and Doug examine common parent concerns, including misconceptions about reinforcement versus bribery, objections to "rewarding" children for expected behavior, and the short- and long-term effects of yelling and punishment. The conversation explores coercive cycles, habituation to punishment, escalation patterns, and counter control. Rick and Doug also address adolescent behavior through the lens of reinforcement history and motivating operations, emphasizing that teenagers are shaped by contingencies rather than being "broken." Practical communication strategies are provided, including using lay terminology, modeling empathy, setting clear contingencies, and teaching parents replacement strategies for coercive interactions. The content is applied and practice-oriented, supporting behavior analysts in improving parent training and consultation outcomes.

  • CentralReach "ABA On Call" Season 8 Ep 1: Audience Questions: Punishment, Harm, and Burnout
    Jan 23 2026

    In the Season 8 premiere of ABA On Call, Rick and Doug kick off the year by responding to three of the most pressing listener questions from the past season: how behavior analysts should think about punishment and ethics, how well-intended ABA can accidentally cause harm, and how the field can better address professional burnout. The conversation examines punishment through a technical, ethical, and real-world lens, emphasizing wellbeing, context, and the necessity of replacement skills rather than simple behavior suppression. The hosts then explore how skipping analytic steps, overreliance on familiar techniques, and systems-level pressures can lead to harmful outcomes despite good intentions. Finally, they turn to burnout as an organizational and relational problem, discussing supervision, workplace culture, and systemic contingencies that shape staff wellbeing. Together, these topics frame a practical, ethically grounded roadmap for doing ABA in a way that is both effective and humane.
