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…

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…

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…

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…
