Lovaas is controversial due to his use of aversion therapy to cure autistic behaviour in children. Lovaas would often beat, yell at and electrocute autistic children if they displayed autistic behaviour in order to make them subconsciously associate it with pain and stop. Lovaas would also advise their parents to use this method. Despite the inherent abusiveness of aversion therapy, it is still sometimes practised by some facilities, although only one, the [[Judge Rotenberg Educational Center]] in Massachusetts, continues to use electroshock therapy.
