O'Neill Lab

Welcome to the O'Neill Lab

Our Research

As behavior analysts, we are particularly interested on identifying environmental variables that influence the efficiency of teaching procedures for early learners, with particular attention to instructional variables that influence the acquisition of imitation, receptive language, and other pivotal developmental skills.

The lab is led by Dr. Paige O'Neill, assistant professor in Behavior Analysis and Therapy. She earned her Ph.D. in Applied Behavior Analysis from the University of Nebraska Medical Center’s Munroe-Meyer Institute. In her clinical work, Dr. O’Neill has worked in several early intervention settings, teaching adaptive skills to children on the autism spectrum. Her clinical expertise includes teaching foundational adaptive skills to early learners on the autism spectrum.
