“…However, restraint can also be implemented therapeutically as a component of planned intervention. Under these conditions, effective behavior reduction is possible (Grace, Kahng, & Fisher, 1994;Luiselli, Kane, Treml, & Young, 2000;Matson & Keyes, 1988;Rapoff, Altman, & Christopherson, 1980;Rolider, Williams, Cummings, & Van Houten, 1991).…”

This research concerned antecedent assessment and intervention to reduce physical restraint (protective holding) of children and adolescents with acquired brain injury and serious challenging behaviors (aggression, self‐injury, property destruction). Study I was an assessment of antecedent conditions associated with protective holding among 15 students attending a community‐based residential school. Conceived as a descriptive assessment, we identified several environmental influences that set the occasion for protective holding. Study II describes how information gathered from antecedent assessment was used to formulate an intervention that reduced frequency of protective holding with one student. Clinical implications are discussed. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…However, physical restraint often is incorporated as a component of a therapeutic behaviour support plan (Federal Statutes, Regulations, and Policies Governing the ICF ⁄ MR program 2003). Research has shown that planned and contingent application of physical restraint can be effective in decreasing problem behaviour when implemented as the only intervention or in combination with other procedures (Bitgood et al 1980;Rapoff et al 1980;Matson & Keyes 1988;Rolider et al 1991). In fact, the strategic implementation of physical restraint should only be justified if it clearly reduces and ideally eliminates the behaviour it follows.…”

Physical Restraint of People with Intellectual Disability: A Review of Implementation Reduction and Elimination Procedures

Background This review describes procedures to reduce and eliminate physical restraint of people with intellectual disability. One approach is to assess antecedent conditions associated with restraint and change them so that they no longer produce restraint-provoking behaviour. A second approach is to decrease the duration of restraint by establishing a fixed-time release (FTR) criterion. Methods Research supporting these approaches within community-based service settings are presented. Results Physical restraint can be effectively reduced and eliminated using antecedent intervention procedures and FTR contingencies.

“…Commonly encountered topographies of problem behavior include but are not limited to self‐injurious behavior, aggression, pica, inappropriate vocalization, property destruction, and stereotypical behavior. These types of problem behavior can be especially challenging among adults with autism as problem behavior among this population is often more intense (Hastings & Brown, ), more complex (Fox, Holtz, & Moist, ), and more established in comparison to that of school‐age children (Matson & Keyes, ). The complexity of long‐standing and multiply controlled problem behavior can increase both the difficulty and the duration of the assessment and intervention process.…”

The purpose of the current investigation was to explore the effectiveness of differential punishment of high rates of behavior (DPH) to treat the severe self-injury of a 28-year-old man with autism in an adult day program setting. DPH procedures involve the use of an established criterion related to a rate of responding within some time interval at which a punisher is delivered. The implementation of DPH in this study resulted in a substantial long-term reduction of severe self-injurious behavior. These findings are significant in that they provide a model for the design and implementation of punishment procedures that can be adopted in applied settings where staff resources are limited. The results of this study have implications for the treatment of severe problem behavior among individuals with autism across settings and age groups.
