Madsen, Emily K.; Peck, Janelle A.; Valdovinos, Maria G. – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2016
In working with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDDs), it is direct care staff who are often required to collect data on individuals' behavior which is used as the basis for implementation of empirically based approaches for intervention and treatment. Due to limited resources, indirect and descriptive measures of…

Lambert, Joseph M.; Bloom, Sarah E.; Kunnavatana, S. Shanun; Collins, Shawnee D.; Clay, Casey J. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2013
We taught 6 supervisors of a residential service provider for adults with developmental disabilities to train 9 house managers to conduct trial-based functional analyses. Effects of the training were evaluated with a nonconcurrent multiple baseline. Results suggest that house managers can be trained to conduct trial-based functional analyses with…

Lang, Russell; Mulloy, Austin; Giesbers, Sanne; Pfeiffer, Brooke; Delaune, Elizabeth; Didden, Robert; Sigafoos, Jeff; Lancioni, Giulio; O'Reilly, Mark – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
We conducted a systematic analysis of studies that involved the treatment of rumination and operant vomiting in individuals with developmental disabilities. A total of 21 studies involving a combined 32 participants were identified and analyzed in terms of (a) participant characteristics, (b) dependent variables, (c) intervention procedures, (d)…

Mace, F. Charles; Pratt, Jamie L.; Prager, Kevin L.; Pritchard, Duncan – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2011
We evaluated the effects of three different methods of denying access to requested high-preference activities on escalating problem behavior. Functional analysis and response class hierarchy (RCH) assessment results indicated that 4 topographies of problem behaviors displayed by a 13-year-old boy with high-functioning autism constituted an RCH…

Lang, Russell; Sigafoos, Jeff; Lancioni, Giulio; Didden, Robert; Rispoli, Mandy – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2010
Analogue functional analyses are widely used to identify the operant function of problem behavior in individuals with developmental disabilities. Because problem behavior often occurs across multiple settings (e.g., homes, schools, outpatient clinics), it is important to determine whether the results of functional analyses vary across settings.…

Carlson, Jane I.; Luiselli, James K.; Slyman, Amy; Markowski, Andrea – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2008
The authors describe a choice-making intervention with two children who had developmental disabilities and demonstrated public disrobing in school settings. The children also urinated in their clothing, apparently to gain access to new and more preferred apparel. The intervention gave the children a choice to change into high-preference clothes at…

Winborn-Kemmerer, Lisa; Wacker, David P.; Harding, Jay; Boelter, Eric; Berg, Wendy; Lee, John – Education and Treatment of Children, 2010
We conducted a three-phase study to evaluate the use of mands and the occurrence of problem behavior for 2 children with developmental disabilities. During Phase 1, a functional analysis identified the variables maintaining problem behavior. During Phase 2, functional communication training was implemented within a concurrent schedules design. The…

Matson, Johnny L.; Mahan, Sara; LoVullo, Santino V. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2009
Great strides have been made in the development of skills and procedures to aid children with developmental disabilities to establish maximum independence and quality of life. Paramount among the treatment methods that have empirical support are treatments based on applied behavior analysis. These methods are often very labor intensive. Thus,…

Delfs, Caitlin H.; Campbell, Jonathan M. – Behavior Analyst Today, 2010
Methods and outcomes from functional behavioral assessment have been researched widely over the past twenty-five years. However, several important research questions have yet to be examined sufficiently. This quantitative review of developmental disability research aims to make comparisons of different functional behavioral assessment…

Luiselli, James K.; Bass, Jennifer D.; Whitcomb, Sara A. – Behavior Modification, 2010
Staff training is a critical performance improvement objective within behavioral health care organizations. This study evaluated a systematic training program for teaching applied behavior analysis knowledge competencies to newly hired direct-care employees at a day and residential habilitation services agency for adults with intellectual and…

Ingvarsson, Einar T.; Kahng, SungWoo; Hausman, Nicole L. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2008
Functional analysis suggested that the problem behavior of an 8-year-old girl with autism was maintained by escape from demands and access to edible items. Noncontingent delivery of an edible item was sufficient to increase compliance and reduce the rate of problem behavior without the use of escape extinction in a demand context. Leaner and…

Moore, Timothy R.; Tervo, Raymond C.; McComas, Jennifer J.; Rivard, Patrick F.; Symons, Frank J. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2009
This quasi-longitudinal descriptive case study evaluated problem behavior for an adolescent boy with developmental disabilities via repeated functional behavioral analysis (FBA) probes during a blinded cross-over from the atypical neuroleptic Risperdal (Risperidone) to Seroquel (Quetiapine). The repeated FBA probes showed no medication differences…

Langdon, Nancy A.; Carr, Edward G.; Owen-DeSchryver, Jamie S. – Behavior Modification, 2008
Precursor behaviors are innocuous behaviors that reliably precede the occurrence of problem behavior. Intervention efforts applied to precursors might prevent the occurrence of severe problem behavior. We examined the relationship between precursor behavior and problem behavior in three individuals with developmental disabilities. First, a…

Potoczak, Kathryn; Carr, James E.; Michael, Jack – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2007
Two distinct analytic methods have been used to identify the function of problem behavior. The antecedent-behavior-consequence (ABC) method (Iwata, Dorsey, Slifer, Bauman, & Richman, 1982/1994) includes the delivery of consequences for problem behavior. The AB method (Carr & Durand, 1985) does not include consequence delivery, instead relying…

Carr, Edward G.; Ladd, Mara V.; Schulte, Christine F. – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2008
Problem behavior is a major barrier to successful community integration for people with developmental disabilities. Recently, there has been increased interest in identifying contextual factors involving setting events and discriminative stimuli that impact the display of problem behavior. The authors previously developed the "Contextual…
