Aba Inside Track

We were walking through the park today, because it’s the Merry Merry Month of May! And, who should we run into but our book club pal, Alan, to ring in the new topics we’ll be discussing this month. After reminiscing on the fun of discussing Neurotribes, we look forward to our episodes on quality of life, bullying, and the evolution of the functional analysis with Dr. Jessica Slaton. We’re about as funny as a screen door on a battleship. Articles for May 2021 Quality of Life Bernhardt, J.B., Larn, G.Y.H., Thomas, T., Cubells, J.F., Bohlke, K. Reid, M., & Rice, C.E. (2020).
