Further evaluation of the role of protective equipment in the functional analysis of self-injurious behavior

John C Borrero et al. J Appl Behav Anal. 2002 Spring.

Abstract

Using a procedure similar to the one described by Le and Smith (in press), we evaluated the effects of protective equipment during a functional analysis for 2 individuals who engaged in severe self-injurious behavior (SIB). Results of our analyses revealed that the use of protective equipment during functional analyses of SIB suppressed levels of responding such that a behavioral function could not be identified.
