“…Similarly, Langone et al (2013) assessed the utility of using an Sd to signal that a punishment procedure was in effect with a 16-year-old male. When a tennis bracelet was worn, response blocking (see Table 1) was implemented contingent upon repetitive hand movements.…”

Stereotyped, repetitive, ritualistic, obsessive, and compulsive behaviors are a common feature for many individuals with autism, and multiple topographies of such behavior exist. Previous reviews have discussed treatments for stereotypy and repetitive behaviors; however, to date, none have systematically evaluated the efficacy of such treatments. An abundance of treatments based on the principles of applied behavior analysis exist within the literature; however, many assume that stereotypy is maintained by automatic reinforcement. The current review aimed to evaluate the efficacy of treatments for stereotypy across disciplines including behavioral, pharmacological, and sensory-based therapies. Furthermore, this review compares the efficacy of function-based and nonfunction-based treatments for stereotypy.

“…These results also extend the applied literature on RB by showing that when it is combined with other procedures, RB can increase the variant non‐verbal behavior of individuals with ASD. RB has been shown repeatedly in the applied literature to decrease RRB (e.g., Giles et al, ; Langone et al, ). Lerman and Iwata () identified two mechanisms that may explain reductions in dimensions of behavior that occur when RB is employed.…”

Food selectivity by individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is often viewed in the behavioral literature as a problem with compliance and treated accordingly. However, when viewed as a problem with invariance, it may be appropriate to treat the problem by using procedures that increase variant food consumption. Lag schedules of reinforcement have been shown to increase variability in verbal and play behavior of children with ASD. Therefore, we attempted to evaluate the effects of a lag schedule of positive reinforcement on variant food consumption by a girl with ASD and food selectivity. Ultimately, a lack of baseline variability in consumption precluded an evaluation of the programmed lag schedule but suggested that a discovery research approach may be informative. Thus, additional treatment components were added and evaluated in a component analysis. Response blocking of invariant consumption appeared to establish a lag schedule of reinforcement that increased variability and variety in food consumption, which was maintained across changes in the value of the lag schedule. Some potential behavioral processes responsible for the effects and implications for future research are discussed. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

“…Although the results of many studies indicate that this method can be considerably efficient in reducing stereotypies during treatment, it has two main shortcomings (Akers et al, 2019): (1) it may increase the subsequent occurrence of stereotypies or the occurrence of other behavioural problems, and (2) it may be very exhausting for the therapist because it requires constant proximity and focus on the behaviour of the subjects in order to consistently block the responses. The combination of RB with the method involving stimulus control (where the child learns to associate a specific stimulus to the consistent blockage of stereotypies) can reduce the described shortcomings to some extent (Langone et al, 2013).…”

Stereotipno ponašanje djece s poremećajem iz spektra autizma

Stereotipna ponašanja pojavljuju se kod većine osoba s poremećajem iz spektra autizma (PSA) i često znatno ometaju njihovo funkcioniranje. Cilj je ovog rada prikazati najčešće korištene bihevioralne metode i postupke za redukciju stereotipija kod djece s PSA-om te sažeti rezultate recentnih sistematskih preglednih studija u kojima je procijenjena njihova učinkovitost. Rezultati recentnih preglednih studija sugeriraju da u području tretmana motornih stereotipija najviše empirijske potpore imaju antecedentni postupci mijenjanja okoline te diferencijalno potkrepljenje alternativnog ponašanja (Akers i sur., 2020), a u području tretmana vokalnih stereotipija antecedentne metode auditorne stimulacije, kao i intervencije temeljene na posljedicama (Wang i sur., 2020). U radu se raspravlja o nedostacima dosad provedenih studija učinkovitosti te su ponuđene neke smjernice za planiranje budućih istraživanja (provedba funkcionalne analize prije implementacije tretmana, provjera integriteta provedenog tretmana, ispitivanje trajnosti postignutih učinaka, provjera učinaka tretmana na druga ponašanja, generalizacije učinaka na različite lokacije, situacije i u prisustvu različitih ljudi itd.). Nadalje, za sigurnije zaključke o dokaznoj utemeljenosti pojedinih tretmana, preporuka je planirati studije učinkovitosti koje uključuju provedbu randomiziranih kontroliranih pokusa. U kliničkoj praksi, potrebno je osigurati da se djeci s PSAom omogući pristup onim terapijskim postupcima koji su znanstveno utemeljeni, i to pravodobno te odgovarajućim intenzitetom.
