The final version of it consisted of (27) items. The results showed that teachers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder were given a high degree of importance on the whole scale. The mean was (2.95). The results also indicated no statistically significant differences in total degrees of importance of (ABA) strategies can be attributed to gender or level of education, while there were statistically significant differences in total degrees of importance of (ABA) strategies can be attributed to training.

AbstractFor over 50 years, intervention methods informed by the principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA) have been empirically researched and clinically implemented for autistics/individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Despite the plethora of evidence for the effectiveness of ABA-based interventions, some autism rights and neurodiversity activists have expressed concerns with ABA-based interventions. Concerns have included discontent with historical events and possible harm from the procedures and goals targeted. The purpose of this manuscript is to examine some expressed concerns about ABA-based intervention and suggest productive ways of moving forward to provide the best outcomes for autistics/individuals diagnosed with ASD. The authors represent stakeholders from multiple sectors including board certified behavior analysts, licensed psychologists, parents, and autistics/individuals diagnosed with ASD.
