Mason, Susan Ann; Newsom, Crighton D.
Research in Developmental Disabilities, v11 n3 p257-71 1990
Three severely mentally retarded adolescents who exhibited repetitive hand movements were assessed during baseline (reinforcement for on-task behavior) and sensory change (rings on fingers of both hands, rings and reinforcement, and faded rings) conditions. Sensory change effectively reduced the target responses for up to four hours. (Author/JDD)
