Yes, ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy can involve repetition, but this is by design and essential to its effectiveness. The repetition helps reinforce new skills and behaviors, making them more natural and automatic for the individual over time. By practicing a skill multiple times in different contexts, children with autism are more likely to retain and generalize the behavior across various situations.
Repetition in ABA is not about mindlessly repeating tasks. It’s strategically used to build strong, consistent learning patterns, helping children develop vital skills like communication, social interaction, and emotional regulation. This approach ensures that children gain mastery over the skills they need to thrive in everyday life.
