In this study, we examined the relation between naturally occurring rates of self-injurious behavior and appropriate communicative behavior using prospective sequential and matching analyses of descriptive data. Results from both analyses suggested reliable covariation between both forms of behavior and staff attention. Findings are discussed in terms of the applicability of quantitative descriptive analyses to characterize behavior-environment relations in natural contexts.
在本研究中,我们通过对描述性数据进行前瞻性序列分析和匹配分析,研究了自然发生的自伤行为率与适当交流行为之间的关系。两种分析的结果均表明,这两种行为形式与工作人员的关注之间存在可靠的共变关系。我们从定量描述性分析在刻画自然情境中行为与环境关系方面的适用性来讨论研究结果。
