About
In this program, we explore the contingencies commonly involved in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Trichotillomania, and Tic Disorders through a behavior analytic lens. These disorders, characterized by compulsions, obsessions, and repetitive behaviors, present unique challenges and opportunities for behavior analysts. We cover treatment options including graduated exposure, Habit Reversal Therapy (HRT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and other evidence-based strategies, providing an in-depth understanding of how to effectively assess and treat these conditions. This program covers: -The behavioral analytic perspective on OCD, Trichotillomania, and Tic Disorders -Assessment techniques and functional analysis protocols -Exploration of ACT principles, including mindfulness, diffusion, and value-based behavior change -Practical application of Habit Reversal Training (HRT) for trichotillomania and tic disorders -Managing covert compulsions and understanding the role of secondary gains -Real-life case studies illustrating successful intervention strategies Learning Objectives: 1. Analyze the distinguishing contingencies often involved in OCD, Trichotillomania, and Tic Disorders and their implications for behavior analytic assessment and treatment. 2.
