The effects of sensory extinction procedures on nontargeted self-stimulatory behaviors of two autistic boys were assessed. In Experiment 1, the frequencies of two topographically similar behaviors of one child and two topographically dissimilar behaviors of the other child were examined within a reversal design. Application of sensory extinction for target behaviors resulted in a decrease in the topographically similar behavior, but no change in the dissimilar behavior. In Experiment 2, sensory extinction procedures were applied to three behaviors of one child using a multiple-baseline design. Two of these behaviors were topographically similar and all were maintained by the same sensory modality. Suppression occurred only for the topographically similar behavior. Results are discussed in terms of their treatment implications.
评估了感觉消退程序对两名自闭症男孩非目标性自我刺激行为的影响。在实验1中，采用反转设计考察了一名儿童两种形态相似行为以及另一名儿童两种形态不同行为的频率。对目标行为应用感觉消退导致形态相似行为减少，但形态不同行为无变化。在实验2中，采用多基线设计对一名儿童的三种行为应用感觉消退程序。其中两种行为形态相似，且均由相同的感觉通道维持。仅形态相似的行为出现了抑制。根据其治疗意义对结果进行了讨论。
