The effects of 2 forms of response interruption and redirection (RIRD)-motor RIRD and vocal RIRD-were examined with 4 boys with autism to evaluate further the effects of this intervention and its potential underlying mechanisms. In Experiment 1, the effects of motor RIRD and vocal RIRD on vocal stereotypy and appropriate vocalizations were compared for 2 participants. In Experiment 2, the effects of both RIRD procedures on both vocal and motor stereotypy and appropriate vocalizations were compared with 2 additional participants. Results suggested that RIRD was effective regardless of the procedural variation or topography of stereotypy and that vocal RIRD functioned as a punisher. This mechanism was further explored with 1 participant by manipulating the schedule of RIRD in Experiment 3. Results were consistent with the punishment interpretation.
本文考察了两种形式的反应中断和重定向(RIRD)——运动 RIRD 和声音 RIRD——对 4 名自闭症儿童的影响,以进一步评估这种干预措施的效果及其潜在的机制。在实验 1 中,对 2 名参与者进行了运动 RIRD 和声音 RIRD 对发声刻板行为和适当发声的影响的比较。在实验 2 中,对另外 2 名参与者进行了这两种 RIRD 程序对发声和运动刻板行为以及适当发声的影响的比较。结果表明,无论刻板行为的程序变化或形态如何,RIRD 都是有效的,并且声音 RIRD 起到了惩罚者的作用。通过在实验 3 中操纵 RIRD 的时间表,对这一机制进行了进一步的探讨。结果与惩罚解释一致。
