Positive practice overcorrection has been shown to be effective in reducing stereotypic self-stimulatory behaviors displayed by retarded and autistic individuals. In addition, the procedure also may increase the occurrence of appropriate behavior through intensive practice. In the present study, several stereotypic and one appropriate behavior (appropriate toy play1 displayed by two autistic children were measured before and during treatment by a positive practice in appropriate toy play overcorrection procedure. Overcorrection was introduced for each of the targeted inappropriate behaviors in sucession for both children. Results showed that overcorrection reduced all stereotypic behaviors displayed by both children. In addition, one subject displayed marked increases in the behavior practiced during overcorrection, appropriate toy play, relative to its baseline rate of occurrence. The results indicate that for some individuals, overcorrection may be effective in teaching and motivating appropriate forms of behavior as well as in reducing stereotypy.
积极练习过度矫正已被证明在减少智障和自闭症个体表现出的刻板自我刺激行为方面是有效的。此外，该程序还可能通过强化练习增加适当行为的发生率。在本研究中，通过对适当玩具玩耍进行过度矫正程序的积极练习，在治疗前和治疗期间测量了两名自闭症儿童表现出的几种刻板行为和一种适当行为（适当的玩具玩耍）。对两个孩子的每一种目标不适当行为依次引入过度矫正。结果表明，过度矫正减少了两个孩子表现出的所有刻板行为。此外，一名受试者在过度矫正期间练习的行为，即适当的玩具玩耍，相对于其基线发生率有显著增加。结果表明，对于一些个体，过度矫正可能在教导和激励适当行为形式以及减少刻板行为方面有效。
