Javid A. Rahaman; Kevin C. Luczynski – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
Behavioral readiness can take the form of communication and self-control skills during challenging situations that are correlated with the development of problem behavior. A skill-based approach can teach behavioral readiness using procedures that involve synthesized reinforcement, probabilistic reinforcement, and contingency-based delays;…

Vosters, Megan E.; Luczynski, Kevin C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Teaching procedures that facilitate the emergence of novel responses allow for increased efficiency, which is critical when providing early-intervention services to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Three 5- and 6-year-old children diagnosed with ASD participated. In Experiment 1, we demonstrated functional control over the effects of…

Campanaro, Alexandra M.; Vladescu, Jason C.; Kodak, Tiffany; DeBar, Ruth M.; Nippes, Kasey C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effect of implementing differential reinforcement at different times relative to the onset of teaching new skills to learners with autism spectrum disorder. Specifically, we first determined the most efficient differential reinforcement arrangement for each participant. Using the most efficient…

Stannis, Rebecca L.; Crosland, Kimberly A.; Miltenberger, Raymond; Valbuena, Diego – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
This study evaluated behavioral skills training (BST) and in situ training (IST) to teach a response to bullying (RtB) to four adults with intellectual disabilities who were victims of bullying. The RtB consisted of refraining from retaliating, stating disapproval, walking away, and telling a staff member. In situ assessments were conducted in the…

Perez, Brandon C.; Bacotti, Janelle K.; Peters, Kerri P.; Vollmer, Timothy R. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
The current study evaluated a toilet-training treatment package described by Greer et al. (2016) with children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Most of the current research on toilet-training interventions for children with ASD are replications and modifications of Azrin and Foxx (1971) or (more recently) LeBlanc et al. (2005).…

Montes, Christina C.; Heinicke, Megan R.; Geierman, Danielle M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
Recent research suggests that a modified habit reversal procedure, including awareness training alone or combined with competing response training, is effective in decreasing speech disfluencies for college students. However, these procedures are potentially lengthy, sometimes require additional booster sessions, and could result in covariation of…

Ennett, Talia M.; Zonneveld, Kimberley L. M.; Thomson, Kendra M.; Vause, Tricia; Ditor, David – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Teaching with acoustical guidance involves auditory feedback (e.g., a click sound when a desired behavior occurs) as part of a multicomponent intervention known as TAGteach. TAGteach has been found to improve performance in sport, dance, surgical technique, and walking. We compared the efficacy and efficiency of the standard TAGteach…

Nieto, Paola; Wiskow, Katie M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
A recent intervention, the Step it UP! game (Galbraith & Normand, 2017), consists of an interdependent group contingency to increase student physical activity. In addition, previous research demonstrated that adult interaction may reinforce physical activity (Larson et al., 2014). We extended research on the Step it UP! game by comparing the…

Lewon, Matthew; Webb, E. Kate; Brotheridge, Sydney M.; Cox, Christophe; Fast, Cynthia D. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
Animal trainers working in scent detection programs are responsible for arranging training contingencies as well as for observing and recording animal behavior. We provided behavioral skills training (BST) to animal trainers working with scent detection rats to improve the treatment integrity of scent-detection research sessions. We evaluated the…

Hood, Stephanie A.; Luczynski, Kevin C.; Mitteer, Daniel R. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2017
We identified greeting and conversation deficits based on a parent interview and semistructured direct assessment for one child and two adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. We taught the greeting and conversation skills using behavioral skills training and within-session corrective feedback. A multiple baseline across conversation and…

Robison, Melinda A.; Mann, Tracie B.; Ingvarsson, Einar T. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
The Preschool Life Skills program is an intervention package designed to teach functional skills to prevent problem behavior in typically developing children. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effects of the instructional package (renamed "Life Skills") with children with developmental disabilities. The program…

Gunning, Ciara; Holloway, Jennifer; Grealish, Leanne – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Parental involvement in intervention can support intervention efficacy, improve generalization, and increase accessibility. The Preschool Life Skills (PLS) program is designed to teach 13 preschool life skills and prevent problem behavior. The current study explores the utility of the PLS program as delivered by parents. In Experiment 1, 6 parents…

Bao, Shimin; Sweatt, Kristin T.; Lechago, Sarah A.; Antal, Sarah – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2017
Many Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention (EIBI) curricula recommend teaching receptive responding before targeting expressive responding (Leaf & McEachin, 1999; Lovaas, 2003). However, a small literature base suggests that teaching expressive responses first may be more efficient when teaching children with ASD and other developmental…

Gruber, Deborah J.; Poulson, Claire L. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2016
We evaluated the effects of a parent-implemented intervention to teach yoga poses to 3 children with developmental delays. Graduated guidance, provided by the participants' mothers, was introduced in a multiple baseline design across the participants. With the introduction of intervention, imitation of the response chains increased over baseline…

Higgins, William J.; Luczynski, Kevin C.; Carroll, Regina A.; Fisher, Wayne W.; Mudford, Oliver C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2017
Recent advancements in telecommunication technologies make it possible to conduct a variety of healthcare services remotely (e.g., behavioral-analytic intervention services), thereby bridging the gap between qualified providers and consumers in isolated locations. In this study, web-based telehealth technologies were used to remotely train…
