Description: Feeding problems in children with ASD are treatable. The same as any challenging behavior, the behavior must first be assessed to determine the maintaining variables and determine potential reinforcers to increase food consumption. This presentation will provide examples of common indirect assessment tools with guidance on how to use the information. Following, we will provide you with examples of descriptive assessments along with the use of functional analysis to ensure the results are experimentally determined. Following the results of the assessment, we will provide commonly used evidence-based procedures, antecedent, and consequent-based, to increase food consumption. In addition, we will provide an overview of the legal and ethical considerations around the treatment of feeding problems.
