ABA is a therapeutic measure to improve social, communication, and learning skills through reinforcement strategies. ABA program uses the psychology of learning and behavioural trades as its base. It aims to increase behaviours that are helpful and decrease behaviours that are harmful or affect learning. It uses many valuable techniques to bring out the desired results in children with autism.

Positive reinforcement facilitates encouraging the child’s social behaviour. It motivates him to respond and behave in a specific manner when otherwise, he does not want to involve in social interaction and respond in certain situations. Negative reinforcement is retarding the maladaptive behaviour immediately when it occurs. The reward needs to be consistent for the child to understand the relevance of the action and consequence.
