In an effort to address the controversy regarding the use of aversive interventions in the treatment of individuals with developmental disabilities, this paper presents a review of the literature on the efficacy of such interventions, along with brief reviews of the ethical and legal issues involved. In general, there appears to be empirical, ethical, and legal support for the continued availability of aversive interventions as treatment options, but only if sufficient safeguards are in place.
为了解决在治疗发育障碍个体时使用厌恶干预措施所引发的争议，本文对这类干预措施的疗效相关文献进行了综述，并简要回顾了其中涉及的伦理和法律问题。总体而言，似乎有实证、伦理和法律依据支持将厌恶干预措施作为治疗选择继续提供，但前提是要有充分的保障措施。
