Hi, I’m Kristi Morin, BCBA-D
As a BCBA-D with over a decade of experience in applied behavior analysis, I’ve navigated the transition from the 4th to the 5th Edition Task List—and now, the shift to the 6th Edition Test Content Outline. I understand how overwhelming these changes can feel and how important it is to have clear guidance.
That’s why I developed this crosswalk—to simplify the transition by providing a side-by-side comparison of the 5th and 6th Editions. This resource is designed to help you focus on what’s new, streamline your study efforts, and approach your exam preparation with clarity and confidence.
