Description

What you’ll learn

The current article discusses the results obtained after the intervention was provided using extinction and functional communication in order to decrease problem behavior. The authors of this study were specifically interested in discovering what happens to "more" severe problem behaviors and "less" severe problem behaviors when extinction (EXT) and functional communication training (FCT) are implemented in combination, and what happens to behavior when extinction is implemented in isolation.
