Direct linkMurphy, Carol; Barnes-Holmes, Dermot; Barnes-Holmes, Yvonne – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2005
Mand functions for two stimuli (A1 and A2) were trained for 3 children with autism and were then incorporated into two related conditional discriminations (A1-B1/A2 -B2 and B1-C1/B2-C2). Tests were conducted to probe for a derived transfer of mand response functions from Al and A2 to C1 and C2, respectively. When 1 participant failed to…

Wilder, David A.; Normand, Matthew; Atwell, Julie – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2005
We examined the use of noncontingent reinforcement to decrease self-injury and increase bite acceptance in a child who exhibited food refusal. First, a brief functional analysis suggested that self-injury was maintained by escape from food presentation. Next, we evaluated an intervention that involved noncontingent access to a video during feeding…

Objective: Outbreak investigations are challenging in a cross-cultural context, and outbreaks of psychiatric disease are rare in any community. We investigated a cluster of unexplained debilitating illness among Amish girls. Method: We reviewed the medical records of cases, consulted with health care providers, performed active case finding,…

Hagopian, Louis P.; Kuhn, Stephanie A. Contrucci; Long, Ethan S.; Rush, Karena S. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2005
Functional communication training (FCT) is a widely used treatment for individuals with developmental disabilities who exhibit severe behavior problems. One inherent challenge of employing FCT as a treatment in the community is that reinforcement for appropriate communication cannot always be immediate or even possible in some circumstances. Of…

Falcomata, Terry S.; Roane, Henry S.; Hovanetz, Alyson N.; Kettering, Tracy L.; Keeney, Kris M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2004
In the current study, we examined the utility of a procedure consisting of noncontingent reinforcement with and without response cost in the treatment of inappropriate vocalizations maintained by automatic reinforcement. Results are discussed in terms of examining the variables that contribute to the effectiveness of response cost as treatment for…

Bastien, Celyne H.; Morin, Charles M.; Ouellet, Marie-Christine; Blais, France C.; Bouchard, Sebastien – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2004
Forty-five adults with primary insomnia received cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) implemented in a group therapy format, in individual face-to-face therapy or through brief individual telephone consultations.

Although the efficacy of maintenance pharmacotherapy for the prevention of recurrence in major depressive disorder (MDD) is well documented, few studies have tested the efficacy of psychotherapy as a maintenance treatment. The authors examined the efficacy of the cognitive-behavioral analysis system of psychotherapy (CBASP) as a maintenance…

Chu, Brian C.; Kendall, Philip C. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2004
Ratings of child involvement in manual-based cognitive-behavioral treatment for anxiety were associated with the absence of primary anxiety diagnosis and reductions in impairment ratings at posttreatment for 59 children with anxiety (ages 8-14 years). Good-to-excellent interrater reliability was established for the independent ratings of 237…

Hardy, Gillian E.; Cahill, Jane; Stiles, William B.; Ispan, Caroline; Macaskill, Norman; Barkham, Michael – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 2005
Of 76 clients receiving 8-20 sessions of cognitive therapy (CT) in a joint university and a national health service clinic, 31 experienced sudden gains that appeared very similar to those first reported in clinical trials of CT by T. Z. Tang and R. J. DeRubeis (1999) and subsequently replicated in other studies. The sudden gains appeared less…

Pike, Daryl R.; Millspaugh, Carla M.; DeSalvatore, Gino – Reclaiming Children and Youth: The Journal of Strength-based Interventions, 2005
Many programs serving troubled youth struggle with behavior management systems that are not focused on treatment and do not provide the skills needed by youth to transition back to their communities. Looking outside the boundaries of traditional point and level systems can be one way to eliminate these problems. This article describes the authors'…

Dillenburger, Karola; Keenan, Mickey; Gallagher, Stephen; McElhinney, Martin – Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability, 2004
There is convincing evidence that applied behaviour analysis (ABA) offers a highly effective form of intervention for children with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD). There is less evidence, however, about how parents perceive and evaluate ABA programmes. In this paper an examination of parents' perceptions of outcome is reported. Twenty-two…

Beck, Alexandra; Hastings, Richard; Daley, Dave; Stevenson, Jim – Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability, 2004
Parents of children with intellectual and developmental disabilities generally report more stress than other parents. Child behavioural features, and specifically their behaviour problems, have been shown to account for some of the variation in parents' experience of stress. However, there has been no exploration of whether the child's pro-social…

Children with autistic spectrum disorders (ASD) characteristically display a lack of shared attention behaviours and the lack of these behaviours impacts on their ability to develop social interactions and relationships with others.
