We compared the effects of continuous reinforcement (play) and alone conditions as controls during functional analyses for 66 individuals whose self-injurious behavior (SIB) was maintained by escape. In every case, SIB was lower during both control conditions than it was during the test (demand) condition. However, SIB was lowest during the alone condition more often than it was during the play condition. Circumstances under which the alone condition might serve as an alternative or more suitable control for escape-maintained problem behaviors are discussed.
我们比较了在功能分析期间，连续强化（玩耍）条件和单独条件作为对照，对66名通过逃避维持自伤行为（SIB）的个体的影响。在每种情况下，两种对照条件下的SIB均低于测试（需求）条件下的SIB。然而，单独条件下的SIB比玩耍条件下的SIB更常处于最低水平。本文讨论了单独条件可作为逃避维持的问题行为的替代或更合适对照的情况。
