Treatment of Primary Enuresis in a Mentally Retarded Adult: The Need to Supplement the Bell and Pad Procedure.

Radler, Gary A.; And Others

Australia and New Zealand Journal of Developmental Disabilities, v8 n2 p93-96 Jun 1982

Bell and pad intervention to treat enuresis in a 21-year-old mildly mentally retarded male is reported. Enuresis was not significantly reduced after 22 weeks of standard bell and pad treatment. Therapist involvement in the program was deemphasized to offset the possibility that therapist visits were reinforcing wet nights. (Author/SW)
