Functional Analysis and Treatment of Eye Poking with Response Blocking.

Lalli, Joseph S.; And Others

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v29 n1 p129-32 Spr 1996

A functional analysis of eye poking by a four-year-old female with severe developmental disabilities and visual impairments showed that high rates occurred in all conditions. Attempts to identify the maintaining variable found that eye poking decreased only when finger-eye contact was interrupted by blocking the response. (Author/DB)
