The Verbal Behavior (VB) approach is a form of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), that is based on B.F. Skinner’s analysis of verbal behavior and works particularly well with children with minimal or no speech abilities. In this book Dr. Mary Lynch Barbera draws on her own experiences as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and also as a parent of a child with autism to explain VB and how to use it.

This step-by-step guide provides an abundance of information about how to help children develop better language and speaking skills, and also explains how to teach non-vocal children to use sign language. An entire chapter focuses on ways to reduce problem behavior, and there is also useful information on teaching toileting and other important self-help skills, that would benefit any child.

This book will enable parents and professionals unfamiliar with the principles of ABA and VB to get started immediately using the Verbal Behavior approach to teach children with autism and related disorders.

    If you have Microsoft 365, then you MUST have this book in your library - whether at work, school, or home. 10 books in 1, and the best part is, each book is dedicated to a separate program. I cannot believe how much I learned from this manual - I was a purely Word user - and I was missing out on SO MUCH! You will be amazed at what these programs can do. And as these books are at beginner level, they are written in a way that anyone can understand, and learn all the ins and outs of what these programs can do. I am even able to use Excel now! If I can learn that, anyone can! Highly recommend.

    "Wow, where do I even start? This book is like the Swiss Army knife of Microsoft Office guidesā€”except it has more tools! If you've ever stared blankly at Excel wondering if it was plotting against you, or opened SharePoint only to immediately close it out of fear, THIS is the book for you.

    With 10 books in 1 (plus SIX bonus ones!), itā€™s like they knew I needed extra help. By chapter 5, I had achieved a near-Zen-like understanding of Excel pivot tables. By chapter 8, I was giving PowerPoint presentations so snazzy that my coworkers suspected Iā€™d hired a personal designer.

    But the real kicker? My new-found proficiency in Outlook. Now Iā€™m actually excited to manage my inbox. My productivity has gone through the roof. I canā€™t wait to dive into Publisher and Visio nextā€”I hear theyā€™re the ā€œdark horsesā€ of the Office Suite.

    Highly recommended if you want to level up your Microsoft Office skills and maybe impress your boss while you're at it! Just keep this book within reachā€”because Office 365 always has new ways to confuse you, and youā€™ll need your trusty guide!"

    I am a BCBA who works in schools. I read this book for the first time this past spring and was so thrilled with the high-quality information presented in such an accessible way that I had my school district purchase a copy for all of our special education staff (teachers, paras, SLPs, and even some parents) so that we may all read it and collaborate about implementation together. It's such an empowering book because it is real, relatable, and gives people (even those with little to no background knowledge of ABA) some solid steps to take in working with children with autism.

    Thank you for this book and for your work, Mary Barbera! FIVE STARS!

    Excellent book. It's very easy to read, the author uses terminology, but explains and breaks it down very well. I have read a lot of books regarding this topic and felt like this book is one I will refer to if needed. Other books, I have had a hard time understanding terminology I am unfamiliar with. This book is great for using terminology and being able to apply the knowledge. I would highly recommend this book to those looking for a way to apply ABA.

    This is a wonderful, detailed, and easy to navigate and implement overview of verbal behavior for parents, caregivers, teachers, SLPs, and new ABA practitioners seeking an introduction to ABA VB. I am a parent of a child with autism and a BCBA and appreciated the synthesis of behavioral science with practical application and every day terminology and concepts that would empower and appeal to someone not well versed in ABA, but seeking an evidence based approach to help their child. It is also compelling as the author shares personal anecdotes of her own journey using ABA VB with her son. I recommend this book highly.

    I had to re-order this book because I loaned it out so many times I lost track of it - but that's okay because when parents read this book it makes my job a lot easier! I am an SLP working in a school for kids with autism and related developmental disabilities and we utilize the ABA/VB approach. I really like how this book is written by someone who can relate to both backgrounds, being a BCBA and a parent of a child with autism. The Potty Training chapter is great! When we have a new parent who is wondering what Verbal Behavior is all about, this is among the first resources I point them to. Thanks for writing this tremendously helpful book!
