Abstract
Bibliotherapy is the use of reading supplements as a form of therapy and children with autism are a population that could benefit significantly from the implementation of such treatment. Board-Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBA) are instrumental in creating a curriculum to shape the behavior of those with autism. This study surveyed BCBAs throughout the United States on their use and knowledge of bibliotherapy, as well as different practices related to its utilization. Overall, 89 BCBAs responded to the survey. Results revealed that BCBAs who used bibliotherapy did not have previous knowledge of the practice. BCBAs who did implement bibliotherapy did not have formal training. Further research is necessary to better understand bibliotherapy as a potential resource for children with autism.
