Applying Signal-Detection Theory to the Study of Observer Accuracy and Bias in Behavioral Assessment
Lerman, Dorothea C.; Tetreault, Allison; Hovanetz, Alyson; Bellaci, Emily; Miller, Jonathan; Karp, Hilary; Mahmood, Angela; Strobel, Maggie; Mullen, Shelley; Keyl, Alice; Toupard, Alexis – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2010
We evaluated the feasibility and utility of a laboratory model for examining observer accuracy within the framework of signal-detection theory (SDT). Sixty-one individuals collected data on aggression while viewing videotaped segments of simulated teacher-child interactions. The purpose of Experiment 1 was to determine if brief feedback and…

Mace, F. Charles; Prager, Kevin L.; Thomas, Karen; Kochy, Jane; Dyer, Tim J.; Perry, Lora; Pritchard, Duncan – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2009
We evaluated the evocative effects of four conditions (high- and low-preference activities, low and divided attention) and stimulant medication on the behavior of a 16-year-old boy with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and moderate mental retardation. All behavior (activity engagement, activity changes, inappropriate touching, rude…

Singh, Nirbhay N.; And Others – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1982
When an oral hygiene punishment procedure was introduced, rumination (regurgitation) of profoundly retarded monozygous adolescent twins was dramatically reduced. The decrease was maintained over a 6 month period and was accompanied by increased rates of socially appropriate behavior. (CL)

Belfiore, Phillip J.; Lee, David L.; Vargas, Andres U. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1997
A study of two adolescents with behavior disorders examined the effects of a sequence of three, single-digit multiplication problems on the latency to initiate multiple digit multiplication problems. During the preference assessment, both students most often selected the single-digit problems and intervention decreased the latency between problems…

Northup, John; And Others – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1991
Functional analysis conducted during a 90-minute evaluation session identified maintaining variables for aggressive behavior and an alternative replacement response in 3 individuals with severe handicaps. During a subsequent contingency reversal phase, aggressive behavior was substantially reduced and alternative behavior increased. Results…

Harris, Sandra L.; And Others – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1990
Three adolescent boys with autism were taught to offer assistance to a person stating inability to complete a task. Generalization of skills in a variety of settings varied across youths, although all three boys showed some transfer of skills to all conditions. (Author/DB)

Fisher, Wayne W.; Lindauer, Steven E.; Alterson, Cindy J.; Thompson, Rachel H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1998
Three experiments were conducted with two participants with mental retardation that displayed property destruction and stereotypy. The experiments assessed the function of the responses, determined their relationship, and developed a treatment to reduce property destruction. Response blocking reduced property destruction (and attempts), prevented…

Horner, Robert H.; Day, H. Michael; Day, Julie R. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1997
A study examined the relationship between neutralizing routines and problem behavior in three adolescents with severe intellectual disabilities. Functional analyses found the problem behaviors were motivated by either escape or tangible items. Results found that neutralizing routines were effective in reducing self-injurious behavior and…

Carr, Edward G.; Carlson, Jane I. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1993
A multicomponent intervention to change problem behavior, which prevented community integration of three adolescents with autism, was evaluated. The intervention (implemented in a supermarket setting) included choice making, embedding, functional communication training, building tolerance for delay of reinforcement, and presenting discriminative…
