founder of www.MooreBehaviorConsulting.com
This webinar is designed for behavior analysts, psychologists, and other clinicians who work with children and want to learn more about assessing and treating sleep problems in both typically developing children and children on the autism spectrum. In this webinar, we will start by conceptually analyzing sleep as behavior, and looking at the environmental factors that affect sleep. From there, we will identify common sleep problems in children and look at what typically causes them. Participants will also learn how to assess sleep problems, with a brief introduction to Dr. Hanley's Sleep Assessment and Treatment Tool (SATT; 2005), and discuss some common behavioral treatment strategies for sleep problems. By the end of the webinar, participants should be able to conceptualize sleep problems through the lens of the behavior analytic contingency, identify common sleep problems in children, and identify and describe at least three behavioral sleep treatment strategies. Participants will also be provided with resources to further explore the assessment and treatment of sleep problems including the SATT and data-based research articles on the treatment of sleep problems. This webinar will be taught by Dr. Keira Moore, BCBA-D, LABA (MA), a 2015 graduate of the Western New England University Ph.D. program in Behavior Analysis.
Dr. Moore has been working with children in the field of behavior analysis for over 15 years. She currently runs Moore behavior Consulting, a behavior analytic consulting company, focused on the assessment and treatment of sleep problems (www.moorebehaviorconsulting.com).
