Behavioral momentum plays a crucial role in ABA therapy, especially for kids and teens with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It involves gradually building up momentum toward achieving desired behaviors or goals by starting with small, achievable steps. Implementing behavioral momentum can make ABA therapy sessions more rewarding and boost morale by basing the approach on the idea that individuals are more likely to engage in a behavior if they have experienced success leading up to it.
