In the early part of his career as a teacher and behavior analyst, McGreevy was drawn to practical applications for children and adults with moderate-to-severe disabilities, especially those with severe forms of self-injurious and aggressive behavior.
He was particularly interested in functional skills that resulted in an improved quality of life. See a sample of this below.
