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…

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…

Herscovitch, Brandon; Roscoe, Eileen M.; Libby, Myrna E.; Bourret, Jason C.; Ahearn, William H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2009
We describe a procedure for differentiating among potential precursor responses for use in a functional analysis. Conditional probability analysis of descriptive assessment data identified three potential precursors. Results from the indirect assessment corresponded with those obtained from the descriptive assessment. The top-ranked response…
