Aperçu: G.M.
Les
comportements inappropriés, allant de la résistance passive à
l'agression physique, la destruction de biens ou les
comportements d'auto-mutilation, sont souvent produits pour échapper ou
éviter des activités non voulues.
Les
procédures proactives ne sont que modérément efficaces sans
l'échappement à l'extinction, mais cette procédure peut produire
des effets secondaires négatifs et des efforts ont été faits pour
trouver des alternatives.
A partir d'une ligne de base multiple, sur les excès comportementaux, les
activités non voulues et les les participants, un délai d'expiration de
la possibilité de travailler réduit efficacement les excès de
comportement et développe une meilleure compliance aux activités non voulues.

Abstract
Inappropriate
behaviors, ranging from passive resistance to physical aggression,
property destruction, or self-injurious behavior frequently function for
escape from or avoidance of non-preferred activities. Proactive
procedures have been shown to be only moderately effective without the
use of escape extinction, but escape extinction can produce negative
side effects, and efforts have been made to find alternatives. The
current study tested the efficacy of a reactive procedure that may serve
as an alternative to traditional forms of escape extinction. In a
multiple baseline across behavioral excesses, non-preferred activities,
and participants, a timeout from the opportunity to work effectively
reduced behavioral excesses and increased compliance with non-preferred
activities. With one participant, a multiple baseline was implemented
across instructional targets, resulting in an increased rate of skill
acquisition after "wait outs" were introduced to each program.
