Non-aversive behavioral intervention has been the charge for human services and education professionals for several decades. The application of positive behavior support, or PBS, has been widespread and adopted as a standard practice for preventing and managing behavior. PBS is an approach that provides a proactive structure to prevent and manage problem behavior. However, the utility of PBS has not been fully explored for its use in ABA clinical intervention settings for individuals with autism.
