The delivery and subsequent withholding of tangible consequences has been previously investigated as an intervention for stereotypic behavior. The current investigation sought to extend previous research by evaluating its effectiveness and durability as treatment for stereotypy of 2 children who had been diagnosed with autism. Nonsocial functions for stereotypic behavior were identified via functional analysis. Edible items were then delivered contingent on stereotypy and were withheld in a subsequent condition. When the superimposition procedure failed to reduce stereotypy, environmental enrichment was implemented and was found to reduce the stereotypy of both participants.
之前已对交付及随后扣留有形后果作为一种针对刻板行为的干预措施进行了研究。当前的调查旨在通过评估其作为对两名被诊断患有自闭症儿童刻板行为的治疗方法的有效性和持久性来扩展先前的研究。通过功能分析确定了刻板行为的非社交功能。然后根据刻板行为交付可食用物品,并在随后的条件下扣留。当叠加程序未能减少刻板行为时,实施了环境丰富化措施,结果发现这减少了两名参与者的刻板行为。
