The timeout ribbon procedure can prevent some of the dangerous situations associated with other forms…

Kamen, David G. – International Journal of Behavioral Consultation and Therapy, 2009
Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) in children and adolescents is a major public health problem. Fortunately, we can apply functional analysis, in conjunction with empirically validated NSSI assessment measurements, to precisely evaluate the biopsychosocial risk factors and reinforcements that contextualize NSSI. Empirically validated behavioral…

Amendola, Mark; Oliver, Robert – Reclaiming Children and Youth, 2010
There have been longstanding debates in the scientific community regarding what qualifies as evidence for programs that work with challenging youth. There are also a variety of levels of evidence on a continuum from promising to proven. Aggression Replacement Training[R] has stood the test of time in terms of its scientific underpinning and…

Hernandez, Emma; Hanley, Gregory P.; Ingvarsson, Einar T.; Tiger, Jeffrey H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2007
Strategies that produce generalized responding are valuable, especially with regard to language acquisition, because relatively little training may result in large behavior changes. Conditions that result in generalized manding were analyzed in the current study. We demonstrated in reversal designs that undesirable or single-word responses were…

Shabani, Daniel B.; Fisher, Wayne W. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2006
Stimulus fading in the form of gradually increased exposure to a fear-evoking stimulus, often combined with differential reinforcement, has been used to treat phobias in children who are otherwise normal and in children with autism. In this investigation, we applied stimulus fading plus differential reinforcement with an adolescent with autism and…

Gwinn, Michelle; Derby, K.; Fisher, Wayne; Kurtz, Patricia; Fahs, Angela; Augustine, Mary; McLaughlin, T. – Behavior Modification, 2005
A four-phase investigation was completed to analyze the utility of forced-choice preference assessments when response effort and reinforcer delays are altered within a subsequent reinforcer assessment. The results indicated that access to highly preferred stimuli continued to serve as a reinforcer when increased response effort was required. When…

Sasso, Gary M.; And Others – Education and Training in Mental Retardation, 1987
The effects of three interventions (peer initiation, reinforcement, and prompting) delivered by nonhandicapped students (4th graders) on the social initiation behavior of untrained peers toward a student with severe handicaps were examined. Results indicated the prompt procedure produced the highest levels of positive social initiation from…

Reyes, Donald J. – 1979
Although the principles governing the application of positive reinforcement to classroom situations remain clear and theoretically consistent, practical problems arise during application that are not easily anticipated. This paper focuses on one practical issue: the selection of appropriate reinforcers to use in inner city high schools. The paper…

Davis, Mary Trotter; And Others – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 1996
An intervention using natural reinforcement and peer influence with three three-person groups of preschoolers, each containing one child with a disability, was evaluated. The design of the intervention (multiple probe across subjects) was found to be effective in increasing the subjects' positive social initiations. Some generalization was also…

McSweeney, Frances K. – Behavior Analyst, 2004
Reinforcers lose their effectiveness when they are presented repeatedly. Early researchers labeled this loss of effectiveness as "satiation" without conducting an experimental analysis. When such an analysis is conducted, "habituation" provides a more precise and empirically accurate label for the changes in reinforcer effectiveness. This paper…
