An Investigation of Functional Communication Training and Schedule Thinning Using a Multiple Schedule on Elopement to Access Stereotypy / Jennifer QUIGLEY in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-9 (September 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 51-9 (September 2021) . - p.3224-3234 Titre : An Investigation of Functional Communication Training and Schedule Thinning Using a Multiple Schedule on Elopement to Access Stereotypy Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jennifer QUIGLEY, Auteur ; Art DOWDY, Auteur ; Kelly TRUCKSESS, Auteur ; Amy FINLAY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3224-3234 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Behavior Therapy  Communication  Humans  Reinforcement Schedule  Stereotyped Behavior  Chained problem behavior  Elopement  Functional communication training  Generalization  Multiple schedules of reinforcement  Signaled availability  Stereotypy Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who engage in stereotypy may also emit a prior, temporally contiguous, high-risk response to access stereotypic behaviors. For example, the participant in this study who was diagnosed with ASD engaged in a chained response that included elopement, often in unsafe locations, to access light switch flipping. Previous research indicates that functional communication training (FCT) with delay fading is a viable approach to reduce chained problem behavior. In this study, we extended previous research by (a) evaluating the generalized effect of FCT and schedule thinning using multiple schedule technology for an automatically maintained chained response, and (b) evaluating whether intervention effects maintained in the participant's optimal context. Results for the participant suggested that FCT with schedule thinning mitigated high-risk chained responding across settings and discrimination training using a multiple schedule assessment effectively signaled available and unavailable times for the participant to emit the chained response which matched the participant's natural schedule parameters.

Contingency-based delay to reinforcement following functional communication training for autistic individuals: A multilevel meta-analysis / Reem MUHARIB in Autism, 26-4 (May 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 26-4 (May 2022) . - p.761-781 Titre : Contingency-based delay to reinforcement following functional communication training for autistic individuals: A multilevel meta-analysis Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Reem MUHARIB, Auteur ; Art DOWDY, Auteur ; Adithyan RAJARAMAN, Auteur ; Joshua JESSEL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.761-781 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Autistic Disorder  Behavior Therapy  Communication  Humans  Reinforcement Schedule  Reinforcement, Psychology  applied behavior analysis  challenging behavior  log response ratio  multilevel meta-analysis  reinforcement schedule thinning Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Functional communication training, an intervention for challenging behavior rooted in principles of applied behavior analysis, has copious empirical support dating back to the mid-1980s for autistic individuals. Recently, there has been a concerted effort to thin reinforcement delivery during functional communication training using contingency-based delays that, in turn, are designed to enhance practicality and feasibility while not compromising efficacy. In this synthesis, we meta-analyzed the literature base with the goal of investigating both combined and across type effectiveness of contingency-based delays. We also aimed to investigate moderating variables that might impact intervention outcomes. Findings showed that contingency-based delays were effective for individuals with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis and most effective when the delay incorporated some form of positive reinforcement. In addition, differential reinforcement of alternative-based delays was overall more effective when compared to differential reinforcement of other behavior-based delays. Noteworthy moderating variables found to impact contingency-based delay efficacy included the intervention dosage and the topography of behavior. We discuss these findings and highlight directions where additional empirical research is warranted to improve our understanding about contingency-based delays for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.

A Decade Review of Two Potential Analysis Altering Variables in Graph Construction / Corey PELTIER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-2 (February 2022)

Preliminary evidence suggest the approach used to scale the vertical axis and the data points per x- to y-axis ratio (DPPXYR) impact visual analysts' decisions. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate time-series graphs published in the last decade in four premier journals in the field of autism. We included 348 articles including 2675 graphs. We identified large variation across and within types of SCDs when evaluating the lengths of the vertical and horizontal axis using the y:x ratio and the DPPXYR, with few adhering to current recommendations. A majority of graphs used an appropriate method to scale the vertical axis that would not increase Type I error rates.
