“…However, Silbaugh et al () reported that all studies in their review of behavioral interventions for food selectivity in children with autism spectrum disorder included some type of pretreatment functional assessment, although the majority did not conduct a functional analysis. Conditional probability analyses of descriptive assessments have been shown to be useful in identifying potential reinforcement contingencies for inappropriate mealtime behavior and have shown to have high correspondence with functional analysis results, which in some cases may obviate the need to conduct a functional analysis (Borrero, England, Sarcia, & Woods, ; Borrero, Woods, Borrero, Masler, & Lesser, ).…”

“…Thus, baseline and treatment conditions were arranged accordingly. Although previous research has suggested that escape is the most common function of inappropriate mealtime behavior (Bachmeyer, 2009) and that results of direct descriptive assessments and functional analyses of problem behavior during meals are often consistent (Borrero et al, 2016), it is possible that Sam's problem behavior was sensitive to other reinforcers. Nonetheless, the intervention in this study addressed multiple social reinforcers (e.g., escape, access to leisure items, preferred foods, and adult attention in the form of praise) without using EE which is often prescribed as a treatment component for mealtime problem behavior, even in the absence of an experimental functional analysis.…”

“…Food refusal is one example of a health behavior assessed and treated using T3 research. Borrero, England, Sarcia, and Woods (2016) examined the relation between results of descriptive assessment and functional analysis in identifying functional reinforcers in populations with food refusal enrolled in inpatient or day treatment. Ewry and Fryling (2016) applied an antecedent intervention in which multiple bites of highly preferred food were presented with a single bite of less preferred food to increase bites of food taken by an adolescent with ASD in the home setting.…”
