The Use of a Warning Procedure to Signal a More Intrusive Timeout Contingency.

Twyman, Janet S.; And Others

Behavioral Disorders, v19 n4 p243-53 Aug 1994

The effects of a warning procedure signaling exclusionary timeout as a consequence for inappropriate behavior during contingent observation timeout was evaluated with nine elementary students having emotional and behavioral disorders. The use of warnings was associated with a decrease in appropriate contingent observation timeout behaviors, suggesting that the warning procedure resulted in more negative staff-student interactions.
