A Case Study of the Reduction of Aberrant, Repetitive Responses of an Adolescent with Autism.
Gunter, Philip L.; And Others
Education and Treatment of Children, v16 n2 p187-97 May 1993
In this case study, music was applied noncontingently and contingently across four settings with an adolescent male with autism, to reduce aberrant, repetitive vocalizations. The intervention was associated with dramatic reductions in the primary aberrant behavior and reductions in two other aberrant behaviors. Task performance was differentially affected by the intervention. (Author/JDD)
