Pretreatment assessment data were used to enhance an existing treatment package to reduce aggression and to increase positive social interactions between a young boy and his peers. Based on the results of pretreatment assessments, additional reinforcement (differential reinforcement of alternative behavior with adult attention) and punishment (performing a nonpreferred task during time-out) components were added to an existing nonresetting differential reinforcement of other behavior (access to peers unless aggression occurred) plus time-out procedure. A posttreatment component analysis of the additional treatment components indicated that the reinforcement component facilitated positive social interactions and the punishment component suppressed aggression towards peers.
治疗前评估数据被用于强化现有的治疗方案,以减少攻击行为,并增加一名小男孩与其同伴之间积极的社交互动。基于治疗前评估的结果,在现有的“其他行为的非重置性差别强化(除非发生攻击行为,否则可接触同伴)加暂停”程序中,增加了额外的强化(以成人关注进行替代行为的差别强化)和惩罚(在暂停期间执行一项不喜欢的任务)成分。对额外治疗成分的治疗后成分分析表明,强化成分促进了积极的社交互动,惩罚成分抑制了对同伴的攻击行为。
