@amaustin86 With all due respect to your sorry (no dare I say egregiously) misinformed opinion. DIR/Floortime has an extensive base of empirical based evidence. Now, do you care to give a go at defining what precisely you define as"empirical." Robotic based training which addresses surface based behaviors and not the underlying core deficits in ASD and related neurologically based disorders addresses affect sensory motor connections; relationship of increased synaptic connections between
the prefrontal cortex (or executive functions) and the limbic system; fusiform face processing area in the fusiform gyrus, etc... All of which has it basis in a little itsy bitsy thing called Neuroplasticity (neurosciences). These connections (or connectivity) is strengthened through two-way dyadic emotional problem solving around the child natural intent or affect and not the typically used discrete trial training methodology (one facet often used in ABA) which has NO basis neurosciences!
Having said that, much to the credit of the above clip, this is not an example of typical ABA. It is not DIR/floortime but it is closer to it (natural environment and not here, but PRT, which is more Denver based model). DIR/Floortime is not focused/targeted on the primitive extrapolation of antecedent, behavior and consequence (reward/consequence) it assumes, has a much greater respect for the child's natural intent or affect; sensory processing differences and primary caregiver dynamics
@Abnormaldiversity And what pray tell is the systemic issue or challenge you have in following the child's lead? . Is it not "scientific" enough for you as in giving neglectful and misanthropic DOG commands?
Wow, what a nice example of using his environment, natural consequences and rewarding appropriate behavior. I use very similar techniques with the little guys I work with. She does a great job of moving it along at his pace and keeping his interest. There are so many great things happening here! She keeps it verbally interesting and rewarding for him, he can't help but make progress. Great Work!
This looks like Incidental Teaching.

At 0:24 he imitates the action of the teacher. Just sayin'.

This is not Floortime at all. This is Applied Behavior Analysis used in a natrualistic way. Floortime has no empirical evidence.

Is this ABA? Looks more like Floortime to me - she's following his lead mostly instead of giving commands.
Pretty good therapist nonetheless.
