The self-injurious escape behavior of a developmentally disabled adult was treated with extinction. Results of a reversal design showed substantial bursts of responding when extinction was introduced and reintroduced: self-injury remained at a variable and elevated rate for some time before stable, low rates were observed. Data on aggression, a nontarget behavior during both baseline and treatment, showed a pattern similar to that seen for self-injury during the extinction conditions.
一名发育障碍成年人的自伤逃避行为采用消退法进行治疗。反转设计的结果表明,在引入和重新引入消退法时出现了大量的反应爆发:自伤行为在一段时间内保持在可变且较高的水平,之后才观察到稳定的低发生率。关于攻击行为的数据(基线期和治疗期的非目标行为)显示出与消退条件下自伤行为相似的模式。
