Abstract

The frequency and intensity of a 14-year-old profoundly retarded male's self-injurious behavior was significantly reduced by the reinforcement of calm sitting behavior. Social validation ratings confirmed the effectiveness of treatment, and showed that gains generalized across treatment and non-treatment settings and across people associated or not with treatment. Treatment gains were maintained at 6- and 12-month follow-ups.

摘要

通过强化平静坐姿行为，一名14岁重度智障男性的自我伤害行为的频率和强度显著降低。社会效度评定证实了治疗的有效性，并表明治疗效果在治疗和非治疗环境中以及与治疗相关或无关的人员中都能得到推广。在6个月和12个月的随访中，治疗效果得以维持。
