A select number of Imagine!’s behavioral staff were chosen to present an original poster at the Four Corners ABA (Applied Behavioral Analysis) Annual Conference in Sante Fe, NM. We were referred to submit a poster abstract to this conference by Dr. Jeff Kupfer, a consultant for Imagine!, who established and served on the Board of Directors for Four Corners.

The poster was titled “Effects of Variable DRO and NCR on Attention-Seeking Behaviors in the Context of a Day Program.” We mingled and talked with other presenters at the conference, building our network explaining in more detail what we do at Imagine!. We also had the honor of listening to several experts on many different subjects within the field of Applied Behavior Analysis, over the course of nine sessions at the conference. We met so many interesting and knowledgeable behavioral professionals, and it was truly a lot of fun to hear what they've been up to in the field. We hope to attend and present again in the future, as it was a great experience and a very informative conference!

** DRO = Differential Reinforcement of Other Behaviors
** NCR = Non-Contingent Reinforcement
