Titre : Conspicuous by the their absence: Studies comparing and combining risperidone and applied behavior analysis to reduce challenging behavior in children with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marc WEEDEN, Auteur ; Kristal EHRHARDT, Auteur ; Alan POLING, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.905-912 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Risperidone Autism Applied-behavior-analysis Challenging-behavior Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Both risperidone, an atypical antipsychotic drug, and function-based behavior-analytic interventions are popular and empirically validated treatments for reducing challenging behavior in children with autism. The kind of research that supports their effectiveness differs, however, and no published study has directly compared their effects or examined the two in combination. The research methods characteristic of applied behavior analysis may provide a useful basis for comparing the effects of risperidone and behavior-analytic treatments, alone and in combination, and researchers are encouraged to pursue this line of investigation.

Titre : Convergent and Discriminant Validity of the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP) and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS) Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Amin D. LOTFIZADEH, Auteur ; Brendan GARD, Auteur ; Cynthia RICO, Auteur ; Alan POLING, Auteur ; Kristen R. CHOI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.803-811 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Behavior analysts frequently use the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VB-MAPP) to assess the language and social skills of children with autism in everyday practice and in research. Despite the widespread use of the VB-MAPP, its psychometric characteristics have not been extensively investigated. To provide information about its convergent validity, we calculated correlations between scores earned by 235 children with autism on the VB-MAPP and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale (VABS), a commonly used assessment with good reliability and validity. We obtained moderate or strong positive correlations between the VB-MAPP Milestones score and VABS Communication, Socialization, and Daily Living Skills subdomains. There was also a strong positive correlation between the VB-MAPP Milestones score and VABS overall raw score. These findings suggest that the VB-MAPP Milestones Assessment measures aspects of social and communicative behavior comparable to those indexed by these VABS subdomains which, like prior findings, supports the use of the Milestones Assessment. No significant relationship was observed between the VB-MAPP Barriers score and the VABS Internalizing, Externalizing, or overall Maladaptive Behavior scores. These findings, like prior findings, question the value of the VB-MAPP?s Barriers Assessment as a measure of maladaptive behavior.

Titre : Identifying reinforcers in skill acquisition studies involving participants with autism: Procedures reported from 2005 to 2009 Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marc WEEDEN, Auteur ; Alan POLING, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.388-391 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Reinforcer-assessment Functional-skills-training Developmental-disabilities Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined the methods reportedly used to identify reinforcers in 97 skill acquisition studies involving people with autism published from 2005 through 2009. Results indicated that 32 of the 97 studies (33%) provided such information. Interviews with persons familiar with participants (e.g., parents, teachers) were the most-used techniques, followed in order by asking participants what they preferred, observing participants in their natural environment, and conducting formal preference assessments. Although effective reinforcers appear to have been used in each of the studies, the failure of many articles to describe how those stimuli were identified may make it difficult for practitioners and researchers to replicate the interventions. Future publications would benefit from the inclusion of clear and detailed specifications of the procedures used to isolate reinforcers.

Titre : Increasing physical activity in young adults with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kate B. LALONDE, Auteur ; Brian R. MACNEILL, Auteur ; Laura Wolfe EVERSOLE, Auteur ; Steven P. RAGOTZY, Auteur ; Alan POLING, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1679-1684 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Exercise Walking Reinforcement Goal setting Autism spectrum disorders Pedometer Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Although regular physical exercise is clearly beneficial, many people with autism spectrum disorders do not exercise regularly. The present study used a multiple-baseline-across-participants design with a reversal to demonstrate that a treatment package comprising goal-setting and reinforcement substantially increased walking by young adults with autism spectrum disorders while at school. During the initial baseline condition participants were given pedometers to wear. Once each participant's number of steps stabilized, she/he sets daily goals for minimum number of steps taken and received access to valued objects or activities (reinforcers) for meeting those goals. By the end of the first treatment condition each of five participants was successfully meeting his or her goal and walking at or above 10,000 steps each day. Walking decreased when a return to baseline was implemented, then increased when treatment was reinstated. Social validity assessment indicated that both the participants and their teacher found the intervention highly acceptable. These findings suggest that simple strategies based on goal setting and reinforcement merit further investigation as interventions for increasing exercise.
