Applied Research in Education and Clinical Settings
Purdue researchers also focus on applied research in educational and clinical settings. They collaborate with schools, clinics, and community organizations to study the effectiveness of ABA interventions and assess their impact on individuals’ lives. This research provides valuable data on the real-world application of ABA principles and guides the development of best practices in the field.
Technology and Behavior Change
Purdue University is at the forefront of exploring the intersection between technology and behavior change. Researchers investigate the use of innovative technologies, such as virtual reality, wearable devices, and mobile applications, to enhance the effectiveness and accessibility of ABA interventions. By harnessing the power of technology, Purdue researchers are paving the way for new and exciting possibilities in behavior analysis.
Translational Research and Dissemination
Purdue University emphasizes translational research, aiming to bridge the gap between research findings and their application in real-world settings. Researchers at Purdue collaborate with practitioners and policymakers to ensure that evidence-based practices are effectively implemented and disseminated. This focus on translational research promotes the adoption of effective interventions and fosters thesustainability of behavior change outcomes beyond the research setting.
