Brief Functional Analysis and Supplemental Feeding for Postmeal Rumination in Children with Developmental Disabilities
Lyons, Elizabeth A.; Rue, Hanna C.; Luiselli, James K.; DiGennaro, Florence D.
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v40 n4 p743-747 Win 2007
Rumination is a serious problem demonstrated by some people with developmental disabilities, but previous research has not included a functional analysis and has rarely compared intervention methods during the assessment process. We conducted functional analyses with 2 children who displayed postmeal rumination and subsequently evaluated a supplemental feeding intervention following meals. Results showed that noncontingent food or liquid presentation effectively reduced rumination with both children. (Contains 1 figure.)
