Compton, Sabine Wilhelm, Lawrence Scahill, John C. Piacentini
Behavior therapy is a well-established and empirically supported treatment for tic disorders (TDs). However, concerns have been expressed about the negative effects of behavioral interventions, such as tic worsening, tic substitution, and excessive effort. This study explored perceived negative effects of tic management strategies in adults with TDs and predictors of these experiences. Participants

A Comparison of Single-Case Effect Measures Using Check-In Check-Out Data Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2024-02-23 Allison M. Peart, Daniel D. Drevon, Andrea D. Jasper
There are numerous effect measures researchers can select when conducting a meta-analysis of single-case experimental design research. These effect measures model different characteristics of the data, so it is possible that a researcher’s choice of an effect measure could lead to different conclusions about the same intervention. The current study investigated the impact of effect measure selection

Examining Procedural Variations of Delivering Competing Stimuli in the Treatment of Stereotypy Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2024-02-23 Julia L. Rosenzweig, Catlyn A. Li Volsi, Tiago de Man, William H. Ahearn
Competing stimulus assessments (CSA) are effective tools for identifying stimuli that compete with automatically reinforced behavior. However, Jennett et al. suggests there are cases for which non-contingent access to competing stimuli are insufficient at decreasing target responding and additional treatment components may be necessary. The purpose of the current study was to examine procedural variations

A Description of Missing Data in Single-Case Experimental Designs Studies and an Evaluation of Single Imputation Methods Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2024-02-20 Orhan Aydin
Missing data is inevitable in single-case experimental designs (SCEDs) studies due to repeated measures over a period of time. Despite this fact, SCEDs implementers such as researchers, teachers, clinicians, and school psychologists usually ignore missing data in their studies. Performing analyses without considering missing data in an intervention study using SCEDs or a meta-analysis study including

Generalization and Discrimination of Positively Reinforced Explicit Mands in Young Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2024-01-30 Laura Claudia Chezan, Autumn Bauer, Erik Drasgow, Heidi Garcia, Adam Warman
Many children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibit generalization errors following mand training. In this study, we extended the literature on the generalization of positively reinforced explicit mands in three young children with ASD and complex communication needs. First, we used mand training to teach a new, socially appropriate, positively reinforced explicit mand to request preferred toys

Functional Analysis of Contextually Inappropriate Social Behavior in Children With Down Syndrome Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2024-01-18 Sally M. Izquierdo, Joshua Jessel, Theresa Fiani, Emily A. Jones
Background:Children with Down syndrome often engage in contextually inappropriate social behavior, which researchers suggest may function to escape from difficult activities to preferred social interactions. Caregivers may reinforce the behavior, perceiving it only as evidence of the child’s social strength, when, in fact, the pattern may also prevent or slow the development of critical skills. Unlike

Characteristics of Missing Data in Single-Case Experimental Designs: An Investigation of Published Data. Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2023-11-17 Orhan Aydin
Single-case experimental designs (SCEDs) have grown in popularity in the fields such as education, psychology, medicine, and rehabilitation. Although SCEDs are valid experimental designs for determining evidence-based practices, they encounter some challenges in analyses of data. One of these challenges, missing data, is likely to be occurred frequently in SCEDs research due to repeated measurements

Further Progress Toward Automating Functional Analysis Interpretation. Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2023-09-09 Jonathan E Friedel,Alison D Cox,Sarah Davis
It is considered best practice to conduct a functional analysis and visually inspect data collected to determine the function of problem behavior, which then informs the intervention approaches applied. Visual inspection has been described as a "subjective" process that may be affected by factors unrelated to the data. Structured decision-making guidelines have been established to address some of these

Transition States in Single-Case Experimental Designs: A Retrospective Consecutive-Controlled Case Series Investigation Behavior Modification (IF 2.692) Pub Date : 2022-06-09 Brianna Laureano, John Michael Falligant
Behavioral interventions to decrease problem behavior often involve the use of single-case experimental designs in which an individual’s responding during a treatment condition is compared to responding during a control or baseline condition. It is possible that during the initial introduction of treatment, problem behavior continues to occur at baseline rates before behavior reduction is observed;
