Often in an ABA program, we’re teaching kids multiple skills at once. For example, we might be teaching a student to mand for cookie, but we may also be teaching them to identify items, introducing gross motor imitation, and following directions. Students will sometimes engage in multiple responses because they believe that’s what you want to see, and that’s essentially what scrolling behavior is.

It's important to be aware of scrolling and know how to deal with it from the very beginning. In this video, we look to cover the types of scrolling, how to prevent scrolling behavior, and why kids scroll. Teaching skills "cleanly” is key so the student doesn’t run through any other responses from overlapping instruction. Scrolling can be physical or verbal, and kids often scroll because they’re looking for whatever will give them reinforcement. As practitioners, whenever we’re unclear on reinforcement contingencies, there’s a greater chance that scrolling will occur. We cover helpful tips and strategies to prevent and manage scrolling through error correction procedures and transfer trials.
