ABSTRACT

Autism spectrum disorder(ASD)is a neurodevelopmental disability that occurs in childhood,characterized by two core disabilities in social interaction and communication,and the presence of repetitive behavior and restricted interest.Thus,the intervention of ASD focuses on improving behavioral disturbances by effective behavior management. Applied behavior analysis(ABA)is a science,which has been applied to the intervention of ASD and has been proved to be evidencebased. In the behavior management of ASD,instructors should master the basic principle of behavior,and apply the evidencebased strategies and treatments to carry out the work under guidelines of theory.
