“…For all participants, the DRO intervention did not require the introduction of response blocking (i.e., escape extinction procedures). This study replicates and extends previous literature supporting the effectiveness of differential reinforcement with and without fading and without the use of response blocking to increase compliance (Dufour & Lanovaz, 2020;Hagopian & Thomson, 1999;Lalli et al, 1999;Piazza et al, 1997;Shabani & Fisher, 2006;Slifer et al, 1993).…”

“…Accordingly, the authors included a modified stimulus fading procedure in which each step of the medical exam was gradually introduced to the participant to increase compliance to socially significant levels. As with Dufour and Lanovaz (2020), their results indicated that escape extinction was not necessary to increase compliance with the medical exam process. Similar interventions without escape extinction have also been used to increase compliance with other medical procedures (cystic fibrosis treatment; Hagopian & Thompson, 1999; functional magnetic resonance imaging [fMRI]; Cox et al, 2017;Slifer et al, 2002;hemodialysis;Carton & Schweitzer, 1996;needle phobia;Shabani & Fisher, 2006;pediatric neuroimaging;Slifer et al, 1993).…”

“…Previous research has evaluated the effectiveness of a variety of procedures to increase both active and passive compliance with medical procedures. Interventions often make use of differential reinforcement procedures with or without escape extinction, including differential reinforcement of other behavior in which the absence of the target behavior is reinforced (DRO; Carton & Schweitzer, 1996;Cook et al, 2015;Cox et al, 2017;Cuvo, Godard et al, 2010;Cuvo, Reagan et al, 2010;Dufour & Lanovaz, 2020;Hagopian & Thompson, 1999;Iwata et al, 1990;Shabani & Fisher, 2006;Slifer et al, 1993;Wheatley et al, 2020) or differential reinforcement of alternative behavior procedures in which a specific target behavior is reinforced (DRA; Slifer et al, 2008;Slifer et al, 2002;Stuesser & Roscoe, 2020). Recently, Dufour and Lanovaz (2020) used a DRO procedure without escape extinction to increase passive compliance to wearing a heart rate monitor in two participants with ASD.…”

The current study taught 6 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to increase passive compliance of wearing a facemask across sequentially increasing durations of time. A changingcriterion design embedded within a nonconcurrent multiple baseline design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of a resetting differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO) without escape extinction procedure on passive compliance. Terminal probe sessions determined DRO fading intervals. Results showed that 2 participants acquired mastery level passive compliance (30 min) without fading during the initial baseline sessions. The remaining 4 participants acquired mastery level passive compliance following fading intervals within the DRO intervention. Participants' passive compliance generalized across 2 novel settings. This study replicates previous studies and extends empirical support for the use of DRO without escape extinction interventions for increasing passive compliance with medical devices in children with ASD.

“…This study utilized a head-mounted eye tracker to record the gaze behavior, which might affect the social behavior of children with ASD to a larger extent. In general, individuals with ASD are more sensitive to wearing devices and eye-tracking techniques usually require extensive calibration [ 38 , 39 ]. These issues considerably raise the difficulty of implementing eye-tracking techniques on children with ASD, particularly on the younger population.…”

Background Previous studies have shown promising results in identifying individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by applying machine learning (ML) to eye-tracking data collected while participants viewed varying images (ie, pictures, videos, and web pages). Although gaze behavior is known to differ between face-to-face interaction and image-viewing tasks, no study has investigated whether eye-tracking data from face-to-face conversations can also accurately identify individuals with ASD. Objective The objective of this study was to examine whether eye-tracking data from face-to-face conversations could classify children with ASD and typical development (TD). We further investigated whether combining features on visual fixation and length of conversation would achieve better classification performance. Methods Eye tracking was performed on children with ASD and TD while they were engaged in face-to-face conversations (including 4 conversational sessions) with an interviewer. By implementing forward feature selection, four ML classifiers were used to determine the maximum classification accuracy and the corresponding features: support vector machine (SVM), linear discriminant analysis, decision tree, and random forest. Results A maximum classification accuracy of 92.31% was achieved with the SVM classifier by combining features on both visual fixation and session length. The classification accuracy of combined features was higher than that obtained using visual fixation features (maximum classification accuracy 84.62%) or session length (maximum classification accuracy 84.62%) alone. Conclusions Eye-tracking data from face-to-face conversations could accurately classify children with ASD and TD, suggesting that ASD might be objectively screened in everyday social interactions. However, these results will need to be validated with a larger sample of individuals with ASD (varying in severity and balanced sex ratio) using data collected from different modalities (eg, eye tracking, kinematic, electroencephalogram, and neuroimaging). In addition, individuals with other clinical conditions (eg, developmental delay and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) should be included in similar ML studies for detecting ASD.

“…Respondent conditioning interventions may also include operant conditioning components to strengthen nonavoidant and compliant behavior. Contingent reinforcement for nonavoidant and compliant behavior (i.e., operant differential reinforcement of an alternative or other behavior) is commonly used (Davis & Ollendick, 2005; Dufour, & Lanovaz, 2020). In addition, noncontingent reinforcement is associated with increased compliance (e.g., Nipe et al, 2018).…”

Treatment of noncompliance with eye examination procedures in pediatric primary care.

Noncompliance and associated behavior problems during medical procedures can result in increased risk of harm for patients and providers and decreased implementation of preventative care. We evaluated the treatment of noncompliance during analogue eye examination procedures within a pediatric primary care clinic with a 9-year-old typically developing male. The treatment included coping skill instruction, education, and graduated exposures. The treatment was delivered in four outpatient sessions, led to increased compliance with the targeted procedures, and was rated as acceptable to the family and patient.
