This case report examine the relation between sleep deprivation and changes in level and allocation of aberrant behaviour (aggression and self-injury) for a child with moderate mental retardation
Abstract:
We examined the relation between sleep deprivation and changes in level and allocation of aberrant behavior (aggression and self-injury) for a child with moderate mental retardation. First, a series of functional analyses identified that self-injury (SIB) and aggression were maintained by escape from demands (i.e., were members of the same response class). Escape from demand conditions more...

The use of a self-monitoring strategy to increase on-task behavior was examined with a postinstitutionalized 13-year-old child who was included in a regular school. A functional assessment conducted prior to the intervention indicated that the student engaged in stereotypy on an almost continuous basis unless she was actively involved in academic tasks. A self-monitoring intervention more...
