Assessment and Treatment of Foot-Shoe Fetish Displayed by a Man with Autism
Dozier, Claudia L.; Iwata, Brian A.; Worsdell, April S.
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v44 n1 p133-137 Spr 2011
Results of a functional analysis indicated that a man diagnosed with autism engaged in bizarre sexual behavior in the presence of women wearing sandals. Several treatments proved to be ineffective or impractical. By contrast, a response-interruption/time-out procedure quickly eliminated the problem behavior in multiple settings. (Contains 1 figure.)
