Using AB designs with nonoverlap effect size measures to support clinical decision-making : a Monte Carlo validation
(SAGE, 2019-07-13)
Single-case experimental designs often require extended baselines or the withdrawal of treatment, which may not be feasible or ethical in some practical settings. The quasi-experimental AB design is a potential alternative, ...
Using a visual structured criterion for the analysis of alternating-treatment designs
Visual structured criterion
(SAGE, 2019-01)
Although visual inspection remains common in the analysis of single-case designs, the lack of
agreement between raters is an issue that may seriously compromise its validity. Thus, the
purpose of our study was to develop ...
Using mobile technology to reduce engagement in stereotypy : a validation of decision-making algorithms
Mobile technology to reduce stereotypy
(SAGE, 2017-12)
We developed an iOS app, the iSTIM, designed to support parents of children with autism
spectrum disorders (ASD) in reducing common repetitive vocal and motor behavior (i.e.,
stereotypy). The purpose of our study was to ...
Effects of a parent training programme for the treatment of young children with separation anxiety disorder
(Cambridge University Press, 2017)
Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has been shown to be an effective
treatment for anxiety disorders in children. However, the majority of studies conducted
to date have included heterogeneous samples of children combining ...
A comparison of communication tone and responding across users and developers in two R mailing lists
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2019-06-19)
The R programming language has an active community of both users and developers, which maintain mailing
lists to communicate. Given their differences in training and
stability, the effects of communication tone on ...
Using ABC narrative recording to identify the function of problem behavior: a pilot study
(Elsevier, 2013)
Many professionals report using ABC narrative recording to identify the function of problem behavior in children with developmental disabilities, but research has not established whether their analyses yield valid results. ...
Initial validation of the Brief Assessment of Service Satisfaction in Persons with an Intellectual Disability (BASSPID)
(Elsevier, 2014)
Individuals with an intellectual disability often require intensive services to promote their social participation to the fullest extent. As such, measuring satisfaction with these services appears essential to enhance the ...
Effects of reducing stereotypy on other behaviors: a systematic review
(Elsevier, 2013)
Researchers have shown that high levels of stereotypy in individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders were correlated with more significant impairments in social and adaptive functioning. Reducing stereotypy may ...
Effects of multiple interventions for reducing vocal stereotypy: Developing a sequential intervention model
(Elsevier, 2014)
Despite the availability of several interventions designed to reduce engagement in vocal
stereotypy, few studies have compared two or more interventions together. Consequently,
practitioners have limited amount of data ...
Preliminary effects of conditioned establishing operations on stereotypy
(Springer Verlag, 2014)
We repeatedly paired preferred stimuli with known establishing properties and poster boards (i.e., neutral stimuli) to examine whether these poster boards would acquire the effects of a conditioned establishing operation ...
