Using Decelerative Contingencies to Reduce the Self-Injurious Behavior of People with Multiple Handicaps: The Effects of Response Satiation?

Peer reviewed

Realon, Rodney E.; Konarski, Edward A., Jr. – Research in Developmental Disabilities, 1993

Transfer and generalization of training effects were also observed. (Author/DB)
