The Son-Rise Program® versus ABA
Understanding of AutismABA The Son-Rise Program
Sees Autism as a behavioral disorder, with behaviors to be either extinguished or reinforced
Sees Autism as a social interactivity disorder, where the central deficit is relating to other people
The child needs structure and must learn to sit appropriately, follow a schedule, and comply with requests
Helping the child to be flexible and spontaneous enables him/her to handle change and enjoy human interaction

The Son-Rise Program® versus ABA
Area of FocusABA The Son-Rise Program
Changing the behavior of the child Creating a relationship with the child

The Son-Rise Program® versus ABA
Method of Teaching New Skills
ABA The Son-Rise ProgramRepetition – Uses discrete trials or similar method to prompt the child to perform a behavior (followed by a reward) over and over again until the child has demonstrated mastery
Motivation – Builds the child’s own interests into every game or activity so that the child is excited, “comes back for more,” generalizes skills, and relates naturally rather than robotically

The Role of the Parents
ABA The Son-Rise ProgramProfessionals are the major players, with parents having a more observational role
Parents are given the most central role because their love, dedication, and experience with their child is unmatched

The Role of the Facilitator’s Attitude
ABA The Son-Rise ProgramSees attitude as largely irrelevant, with effective application of behavior shaping techniques being what matters
Sees attitude as vitally important, since having a non-judgmental and welcoming attitude determines whether the child feels safe and relaxed enough to interact and learn

The Son-Rise Program vs. Floortime/DIR and RDI
Repetitive “Stimming” Behaviors
Floortime/DIR The Son-Rise Program
Advocates being “playfully obstructive”, which means endeavoring to generate social interaction but playfully getting in the way of the child’s behavior so they have to interact with you to move you.
Advocates “joining”, which means entering the child’s world by enthusiastically participating in their repetitive behavior until the child interacts of their own volition. This is seen as central to creating a willing interpersonal connection.

The Son-Rise Program vs. Floortime/DIR and RDI
Red and Green Lights: The Exclusive/Interactive Continuum
Floortime/DIR and RDI The Son-Rise Program
Seeks the child’s interaction regardless of the child’s “state.” Facilitators are taught to look for opportunities to create and build interaction as much as possible.
Teaches how to see, in each moment, where a child is on a continuum - from exclusive/in their own world (red lights) to interactive (green lights). During red lights, children are joined in their world. Teaching and challenging happens only when the child is giving a green light.

The Son-Rise Program vs. Floortime/DIR and RDI
Celebration of the Child
RDI The Son-Rise ProgramDoes not believe in big celebrations of the child (particularly with regard to eye contact) because of a concern about doing anything which might be construed as ABA-type behavior-shaping reinforcement, which is seen as bleeding social interaction of most of its humanity. When the child engages in some way, the facilitator either remains silent or “spotlights” what the child did in a low-key manner.
Sees another way forward with a different kind of huge celebration which adds humanity. Celebrates eye contact, communication, flexibility, and engagement as magnificent and meaningful steps toward the world of others. Uses celebration to express a deep sense of gratitude that the child can understand, enhancing closeness and social engagement.

The Importance of AttitudeFloortime/DIR and RDI The Son-Rise Program
Sees attitude as largely irrelevant, with effective application of each program’s techniques being what matters.
Sees attitude as vitally important, since having a non-judgmental and welcoming attitude determines whether the child feels safe and relaxed enough to interact and learn. It also determines whether parents stick with a program.
