Abstract in brief
- The expansion of the behavior-analytic workforce, driven by legislative support, has increased services for individuals with autism and intellectual disabilities, but future growth may slow as demand is eventually met.
- Other groups like those with dementia and traumatic brain injuries could benefit from these services, but currently have limited access to qualified behavior analysts, highlighting the need for professionals to expand their scope of practice.
- The paper suggests strategies for behavior analysts to develop skills and create job opportunities in serving new consumer populations beyond autism, ensuring continued growth and impact of behavior-analytic services in the 21st century.]
