    HACE 5 DÍAS

    Nicholas Liu's Autism & ABA Journey

    Nicholas Liu was diagnosed with autism at a young age. He received applied behavior analysis (ABA) throughout his childhood. Today, at age 29, he's a highly successful journalist. What was his ABA experience like? As a person with autism, how has he adapted to--and thrived in--a society built around the needs and proclivities of neurotypical people? In this fascinating discussion, Nicholas reflects on learning which actions were "cool" and "not cool"; how ABA helped him broaden his horizons; and the modern world's tension between efficiency and empathy. Nicholas will appear on an upcoming episode of History Channel's UnXplained with William Shatner. He discusses the historical origins of the video game "Assassin's Creed." Follow him on X, Bluesky, and Substack.
