http://www.AutismCauses1.com/autism-behavior -- Autism Behavior - Changing Your Child One Step at a Time. The above example explains how autism behavior management works- ignoring unwanted behaviors and rewarding good ones.
There are techniques to shape an autistic child's behaviors and ways to encourage the display of unwanted actions.
1. The ABC model is a simplified way of observing and rewarding a behavior. A is for Antecedent or the event that precedes the behavior. The most effective way is to ignore the behavior. Reward a positive behavior afterward. Choose a reward that is meaningful to the child.
2. You have to continue the process of modifying your child's behavior.
3. Reward or punish right away.
4. Lessen the use of reinforcements as the behavior improves.
