Experimental and applied behaviour analysis
It is often claimed that applied behaviour analysis is founded on basic behavioural concepts involving the direct extrapolation of data from the experimental laboratory to the analysis of human behaviour. It is claimed that such an approach gives theoretical coherence to a set of procedures, and …

Transient boiler heat exchanger thermal behaviour analysis
… need to understand the steady state and dynamic behaviour of the components of these plants in order to predict the stresses that the material experience. This report discusses an investigation to the possibility of modelling the thermal dynamic behaviour of typical boiler heat exchanger …

Improving the Institutional Behaviour of Prisoners: Challenges and Opportunities for Behaviour Analysis
… sparse literature concerning the in-prison behaviour of prisoners. Persistent and rising levels of violent and disruptive behaviour in prisons highlight the need for greater research attention to be devoted to this issue. The field of applied behaviour analysis may be well placed to address …

Sensors and Wearable-based Activity Recognition and Behaviour Analysis for Users' Quality of Life Improvement
… and wearable-based activity recognition and behaviour analysis for Users' quality of life improvement. The topic has been addressed considering two different fields of study, one concerning \ac{BECM} Systems while the other is more concerning healthcare and well-being aspects. Indeed, it has …

Investment behaviour analysis of oil and gas exploration and production: evidence from the United Kingdom continental shelf.
… towards net-zero 2050. Using robust regression analysis and autoregressive moving average techniques, this study uses the rate and timing of wells drilled in the UKCS basin as proxies for investment, to investigate the factors that affect investment in the UKCS. The study focuses on such factors …

Applied Behaviour Analysis versus Positive Behaviour Support: Using an Implicit Measure (IRAP) to evaluate influence of terminology on Social Acceptance
… and explicit rating evaluations of Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) and Positive Behaviour Support (PBS) when both described similarly as educational supports. Participants were then divided into two groups and exposed to an intervention that delivered expanded positive information about ABA …

Dance with a B-E-A-T: Recreational Dance with Behaviour Analysis and Therapy for Children and Youth with Exceptionalities
… Dance with a B-E-A-T (Dance with Behavioral Analysis and Therapy), a recreational dance program with behavioral principles and therapeutic components for children and youth (7 to 12 years of age) with various exceptionalities such as neurodevelopmental disorders and/or anxiety disorders. This …

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and challenging behaviours (CB): training and content knowledge of teachers in the Republic of Ireland
… for those diagnosed with autism. Applied behaviour analysis has been shown to produce advantageous outcomes (e.g. raised IQ scores, improved verbal skills, and increased adaptive behaviours; Fein, 2013; Dawson et al. 2010) and is widely accepted as an evidence-based practice for …

SEMANTIC ANALYSIS AND UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN BEHAVIOUR IN VIDEO STREAMING
This thesis investigates the semantic analysis of the human behaviour captured by video streaming, both from the theoretical and technological points of view. The video analysis based on the semantic content is in fact still an open issue for the computer vision research community, especially when …

Children with Neurodevelopmental and Behavioural Challenges: A Descriptive Case Study Examining the Integration of Dance and Behaviour Therapy Within Day Treatment
… A manualized program, Dance with a B-E-A-T! (behaviour analysis and therapy), combines recreational dance with components of behaviour analysis and therapy to help facilitate improvements in motor skills, social skills, emotional regulation, and self-coping. Building on a pilot study completed …

Examining the effectiveness of behaviour analytic interventions delivered via telehealth in training professionals working with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
… in social communication and restrictions in behaviours and thought patterns. Applied behaviour analysis (ABA) is the applied branch of the science of behaviour analysis and is considered an evidence-based practice (EBP) for providing interventions for individuals diagnosed with ASD who are in …

Examining the transfer of fear and avoidance response functions through real-world verbal relations.
Language is conceived in modern behaviour analysis as a large network of contextually controlled interconnecting stimulus relations. One process in particular, the derived transfer of response functions, is a central feature of these verbal networks. According to this process, the functions of …

Individual and group dynamic behaviour patterns in bound spaces
The behaviour analysis of individual and group dynamics in closed spaces is a subject of extensive research in both academia and industry. However, despite recent technological advancements the problem of implementing the existing methods for visual behaviour data analysis in production systems …

An exploration of burnout and compassion fatigue in ABA providers in an online forum
Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) is a treatment for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). ABA providers develop treatment programs and face occupational hazards. This exploratory, qualitative research examined: 1) “How do ABA providers express experiences of burnout and compassion fatigue (CF) in an …

Person tracking in 3D using Kalman filtering in single and multiple camera environments
… system could be used in conjunction with behaviour analysis systems to perform automated monitoring of human activity in a range of different environments. Targets are tracked in a 3-D world-view coordinate system which is common to all cameras monitoring the scene. Targets are modelled as …

Machine Vision Techniques for the Evaluation of Animal Behaviour
… and temporal models as a combined tracker and behaviour analysis system. A method is also presented for the identification of individuals from their characteristic markings which utilises the result from the animal tracker method. The methods presented have wider application than simply the …

An exploration of interdisciplinary practice through an examination of specific disciplinary interpretations of stereotypic behaviour
… properties and triggers of stereotypic behaviour exists. When looking at this behaviour from an Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) framework, limitations are evident around identifying specific sensory modalities and functional properties of such behaviour. Antecedents particularly are …

Assessment of the Effects of Road Geometry on Irish Accident Rates and Driving Behaviour
… segments with bad geometry. A visualisation and analysis of this crash data is presented to better determine the relationship ‘if any’ between road geometry and accident points. The second experiment then examines driver behaviour on road segments that also contain bad bends using a purpose built …
