Simple Steps To Successful ABA Pairing

By Shirley Hill


Pairing is an effective kind of therapy that professionals use in children to gain trust as well as instructional control. They do this so that children can like them and view them as a positive and friendly presence. Parents to use pairing to control the behavior of their children and encourage good manners since they are always the ones giving demands at home. ABA pairing is always used as therapy especially for children with autism or special needs to establish acceptable behavior. Through this aspect, the individuals are able to associate with the teacher and the instructor can give instructions. The following is a guide to efficient pairing.

Ensure that you limit the kid access to their highly preferred things for a specific period before pairing. This way, you will be encouraging interaction since they will have to come through you to get their favorite items. Put all their favorite things on a high shelf so that you can be in control. Ensure you have them with you all the time to avoid disappointing them.

When gaining access to an item, allow them to come to you for the thing or engage in their favorite activity. Avoid giving them this access if they are running away from you or have engaged in problem behavior. You need to know that they can come to you freely without being coerced rather than running away with fear. Reinforce the behavior that you want to see even in the future.

The way you talk to the kid or your facial expression can go a long way into affecting your relationship. Always use a friendly facial expression and tone. They help your child to know that you are enjoying being with them and interacting. This should be a fun experience for both of you. Show that you enjoy by mentioning their name when doing something, giving praises and impersonating their vocalizations. This encourages fun and gives a child the feeling that they belong there with you.

Demanding your kid to do something can build the wrong impression about you. Instead, engage the minor into the activity by describing how exciting it is to do something. Use phrases that describe the activity well. This way, you will be indirectly telling them to take an activity without having to command them.

Never take an item from the learner when they have it. Instead, use another favorite item to trade what they have. Offer another thing and see if they like it then hand it to them. Let them relinquish the other item at their own will. Exchanging items helps them use other items to avoid satiating on one item for a long time. This will prevent violence and will encourage sharing and interaction.

This is a process that can take a long time especially if you want to get lead of unpleasant behavior that they acquired before. If a child cries or runs away when you approach them or when they need something, you have a lot of work to do to repair this relationship. You will know if it has been effective if they come to you willingly without crying.

Pairing cannot happen overnight especially if you want to direct them to their less-preferred tasks. You need to be patient and take time every day to pair. Soon, the kid will learn these new skills and be happy to interact with you and other people close.
