Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Secan, Kristin E.; Egel, Andrew L. – Education and Treatment of Children, 1986
The study assessed the effects of a negative practice contingency plus DRO on the self-stimulatory hand-clapping of three developmentally disabled students, aged 6-9. The procedure was effective in suppressing the behavior, and follow-up observations showed that the occurrence of hand-clapping continued to be low. (Author/JDD)
