Iannaccone, Julia A.; Jessel, Joshua – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Procedural arrangements of differential reinforcement of alternative behavior without extinction often involve presenting the same reinforcers for problem behavior and appropriate behavior, which is typically ineffective at reducing problem behavior and increasing an alternative response. However, manipulating reinforcement dimensions such that…

Peltier, William; Newell, Kristen L.; Linton, Elizabeth; Holmes, Sarah C.; Donaldson, Jeanne M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Disruptive behavior during instruction is a common problem in elementary classrooms. One intervention to reduce disruptive behavior is the Good Behavior Game (GBG). In this study, the students of 2 early elementary classrooms experienced 3 versions of the GBG: experimenter-implemented, teacher-implemented, and student-implemented. The effects of…

Haney, Sarah D.; Greer, Brian D.; Mitteer, Daniel R.; Randall, Kayla R. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Resurgence and renewal are treatment-relapse phenomena in which previously extinguished behavior returns after the conditions for an alternative response worsen or the context changes, respectively. Recently, researchers have evaluated the prevalence of resurgence and renewal when treating destructive behavior with functional communication…

Berdeaux, Kally L.; Lerman, Dorothea C.; Williams, Sarah D. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Past research has demonstrated the effectiveness of teacher-implemented, function-based treatments for problem behavior, but no studies have evaluated the impact of distractions on teachers' procedural integrity. In this proof-of-concept study, the experimenters employed a laboratory analog to examine the impact of distractions on levels of…

Lloveras, Lindsay A.; Tate, Savannah A.; Vollmer, Timothy R.; King, Melissa; Jones, Hannah; Peters, Kerri P. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Behavioral skills training (BST) is a well-established procedure used to train individuals how to perform a variety of complex skills. Previous research has used BST to train parents, teachers, and clinicians how to conduct a variety of clinical procedures, including functional analysis of problem behavior. Although this procedure has been…

Banerjee, Ipshita; Lambert, Joseph M.; Copeland, Bailey A.; Paranczak, Jessica L.; Bailey, Kathryn M.; Standish, Cassandra M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Little research has highlighted how evidence-based practices (e.g., functional communication training [FCT]) might be adapted for bilingual learners with disabilities. In the current study, we served 2 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and challenging behavior whose parents primarily spoke Spanish at home, and whose teachers primarily…

Lambert, Joseph M.; Copeland, Bailey A.; Paranczak, Jessica L.; Macdonald, M. Janey; Torelli, Jessica N.; Houchins-Juarez, Nealetta J. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Individualization and iterative design are essential components of the assessment and treatment of challenging behavior. Currently, there are few validated frameworks for engaging in iterative processes. Due to the nature of single-case design, empirically rigorous evaluations of decision-tree processes are particularly prohibitive.…

Staubitz, Johanna L.; Staubitz, John E.; Pollack, Marney S.; Haws, Rachel A.; Hopton, Michelle – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
The enhanced choice model of skill-based treatment (ECM-SBT; Rajaraman et al., 2021) is a package of behavioral treatment procedures with modifications designed to reduce risks associated with extinction of problem behavior. The skill-based treatment component of this package (Hanley et al., 2014) has been investigated thoroughly in clinical…

Lambert, Joseph M.; Sandstrom, Amanda L.; Hodapp, Robert M.; Copeland, Bailey A.; Paranczak, Jessica L.; Macdonald, M. Janey; Houchins-Juarez, Nealetta J. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
This paper represents the third in a three-part series intended to challenge the social validity of the services provided by a university-based practicum for addressing the challenging behavior of individuals with disabilities. In this paper, we surveyed referring stakeholders (e.g., parents, teachers) of past service recipients to explore the…

Lambert, Joseph M.; Paranczak, Jessica L.; Copeland, Bailey A.; Macdonald, M. Janey; Houchins-Juarez, Nealetta J. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
In theory, the principles, processes, and concepts of applied behavior analysis are universally applicable. In practice, clinicians commit their lives to serving specific populations in specific settings for which specialization is needed. The purpose of this 6-year retrospective consecutive case series was to describe and evaluate the quality and…

Machado, Mychal A.; Luczynski, Kevin C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
The current study evaluated whether a computer-based training program could improve observers' accuracy in scoring discrete instances of problem behavior at 5x normal speed using a multiple-baseline design across subjects. During pretraining and posttraining, observers attempted to score multiple examples of problem behavior at 5.0x without…

Ward, Shannon N.; Hanley, Gregory P.; Warner, Christine A.; Gage, Ellen E. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
When problem behavior is controlled by a synthesized reinforcement contingency, a simple omnibus mand that yields access to all reinforcers simultaneously has been shown to effectively replace problem behavior. The question arises as to whether teaching an omnibus mand will preclude the acquisition of specifying mands for each of the combined…

Ghaemmaghami, Mahshid; Hanley, Gregory P.; Jessel, Joshua – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
Functional communication training (FCT; Carr & Durand, 1985) is a common function-based treatment in which an alternative form of communication is taught to reduce problem behavior. FCT has been shown to result in substantial reductions of a variety of topographically and functionally different types of problem behavior in children and adults…

Whelan, Cory J.; Hanley, Gregory P.; Landa, Robin; Sullivan, Emily; LaCroix, Kara; Metras, Rachel – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
General and long-term outcomes of functional analysis training have not yet been reported. Within a randomized control trial, we trained 18 behavior analytic practitioners to interview caregivers, design and then conduct a personalized analysis as a part of a practical functional assessment (PFA). Participants were randomly assigned to groups, and…

Muething, Colin; Pavlov, Alexis; Call, Nathan; Ringdahl, Joel; Gillespie, Scott – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
The current study examined resurgence of problem behavior during thinning of multiple schedules of reinforcement following functional communication training replicating previous research (Briggs et al., 2018). Data were analyzed at each thinning step from subjects enrolled in an intensive day treatment program over a 5-year period. Results…
