This research method uses a qualitative approach with the type of field research and the subjects in this research were 7 people consisting of (three autistic children, three parents, and one therapist). The research results show that the implementation of the Applied Behavior Analysis method goes through four stages, namely assessment, program preparation, implementation and evaluation. Implementation of the Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) method provides a slight improvement for one child but is less effective for other children. The conclusion of this research is that the implementation of the ABA method with the help of picture cards has not been completely successful, indicating the need to adjust therapy according to the individual needs of autistic children.]]>
