However, those outcomes are also often delayed, and humans have shown a decreased sensitivity to delayed reinforcement. This study replicated prior research on discounting of delayed treatment outcomes by caregivers of children receiving behavior-analytic interventions for dangerous or destructive behavior. It also compared sensitivity to delays by these caregivers with that of caregivers of children undergoing interventions focused on skill acquisition and to address food selectivity or refusal. Results demonstrated that caregivers of children receiving each type of behavior-analytic intervention discounted the value of delayed treatment outcomes. Caregivers of children undergoing intervention for dangerous or destructive behavior discounted the value of delayed treatment outcomes significantly more than those whose children were undergoing intervention focused on skill acquisition, indicating that immediacy was particularly important for those caregivers.","PeriodicalId":14983,"journal":{"name":"Journal of applied behavior analysis","volume":"59 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149166933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fifteen single-case experimental studies from three countries involving 40 individuals with disabilities were analyzed. Visual analysis indicated strong functional relations between functional communication training and student outcomes. Multilevel meta-analysis of aggregated outcomes across all students indicated statistically significant effects in the expected directions for communication outcomes (Hedges's g = 3.06, 95% CI [2.42, 3.70]) and challenging behavior (Hedges's g = −2.65, 95% CI [−3.40, −1.91]). Moderator analyses showed that outcome type significantly predicted effect size, whereas publication year, setting, research design, diagnostic category, functional analysis type, and training components did not. Overall risk of bias was low, although blinding risk was high. Findings support educator-delivered functional communication training as an effective and empirically supported intervention for the treatment of challenging behavior.","PeriodicalId":14983,"journal":{"name":"Journal of applied behavior analysis","volume":"59 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149146413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluated the efficacy of linked digital activity schedules (i.e., synchronized tablet-based visual prompts that guided partners through shared play sequences) on cooperative thematic play (i.e., coordinated, role-based pretend play organized around a theme). Using a multiple-baseline design across dyads, we combined the schedules with time-delay prompts to occasion independent play actions and verbal exchanges. All participants showed increased cooperative thematic play across sessions. Caregivers completed postteaching questionnaires and reported that the procedures were feasible, acceptable, and useful for supporting peer engagement. Preliminary generalization across novel peers and settings was also observed. These findings provide initial evidence that linked digital activity schedules may be a practical technology-based intervention to promote the cooperative thematic play of children with autism.","PeriodicalId":14983,"journal":{"name":"Journal of applied behavior analysis","volume":"59 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-09-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148990140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Across four consecutive studies using similar preparations and participants, our research group investigated four BMT-informed mitigation strategies: (a) lean reinforcement rates for target behavior during baseline, (b) lean reinforcement rates for alternative behavior during treatment, (c) a longer treatment duration, and (d) a combined approach including all three refinements. In the current study, we analyzed the relevance of each BMT-informed strategy sourced from four published studies and included three additional participants resulting in a total of 24 data sets. Lean reinforcement rates during baseline and the combined approach resulted in the largest reductions in resurgence when analyzed as a proportion of baseline. We contextualize these findings in relation to BMT's account of resurgence and implications for practice.","PeriodicalId":14983,"journal":{"name":"Journal of applied behavior analysis","volume":"59 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2026-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13500207/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148808582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
