“…Reductions in untargeted responses that were observed in the present study are consistent with previous treatment studies involving noninjurious repetitive behavior (e.g., Friman & Hove, 1987;Johnson et al, 1982). There are at least four interpretations for this effect.…”

“…Similarly, because participants were selected based on their exhibition of multiple response forms, the present outcomes may not predict response allocation for individuals who exhibit fewer response forms. Nevertheless, similar response patterns were reported in previous studies that did not impose such selection criteria (e.g., Johnson et al, 1982;Rollings & Baumeister, 1981). Second, the relative brevity of the sessions and the inconsistent toy preference exhibited by Alice suggest that lengthier sessions may not have produced comparable reductions in stereotypy in either the environmental enrichment or environmental enrichment plus R1 conditions.…”

“…We thank Alyson Hovanetz for her assistance with data collection and data analysis. multiple forms of stereotypy (e.g., Johnson, Baumeister, Penland, & Inwald, 1982;Rollings & Baumeister, 1981;Rollings, Baumeister, & Baumeister, 1977); however, few studies have evaluated the effects of behavioral interventions on multiple forms of stereotypy. For example, it is possible that one form of stereotypy increases as another form of stereotypy decreases.…”

Three experiments were conducted to evaluate response allocation of stereotypy during free-operant and restricted-operant conditions. Five children with autism or related developmental disabilities participated in at least one and up to three of the experiments. In Experiment 1, the stereotypic response that emerged as most probable during a free-operant phase was restricted, and response allocation was again evaluated. The results for 3 participants showed that restricting the high-probability response was correlated with covarying reductions in a nontargeted stereotypy. In Experiment 2, the effect of environmental enrichment on response allocation was evaluated. One participant reallocated behavior to appropriate object manipulation, 1 participant showed no change in behavior, and a 3rd participant reallocated behavior to object manipulation only when the putative stimulus products of the object manipulation matched those of stereotypy. In Experiment 3, additional interventions were implemented to promote response reallocation. Results showed that both response restriction and reinforcement for object manipulation decreased stereotypy and increased object manipulation. Collectively, the results of these experiments point to a need for complex evaluations of interventions for stereotypy.

“…Changes in collateral behaviours during treatment is not uncommon (Johnson et al, 1982) and may be under reported (Foster, 1978). In the present study, the authors have already anecdotally reported spontaneous emergence of attending responses which may be physically incompatible with some of the target stereotypies.…”

ABSTRACT. This study extends an operant methodology for the analysis of variables which control aberrant responses displayed by mentally handicapped people. The proportion of time spent in individual, stereotyped topographies by three profoundly mentally handicapped subjects was observed by momentary time‐sampling whilst they were repeatedly exposed to four analogue environments: Alone, Social Disapproval, Academic Demand and Unstructured Play. Two of the three subjects showed replicable effects of the analogue environments. One subject showed evidence of an interaction between stereotyped topography and type of analogue environment. This study shows that the operant methodology of Iwata et al. (1982), originally developed with self injurious responses, can be successfully refined and extended to the analysis of a wider range of aberrant topographies.

“…Unfortunately, recent research has provided little evidence of any corresponding reduction in the split between the experimental analysis of behaviour and applied behaviour analysis. Thus, for example, while Epling & Pierce (1983) and McDowell (1982) have pointed to the potential importance of the correlational law of effect and the matching law to applied studies, both applied parametric studies of reinforcement processes (Martens & Houk, 1989) and applied studies of within-subject response covariation (Johnson et al, 1982;Parrish et al, 1986;Russo et al, 1981) remain rare.…”

Recent developments in epidemiological and applied behavioural research and practice are reviewed. Three key themes in applied behavioural approaches are identified and discussed: an increasing tendency to base interventions upon prior experimental analyses; the use of communication as a metaphor in understanding the function of self‐injurious behaviour; a questioning of the social validity of aversive interventions.
