Antecedent Control

Promoting new and alternative approaches to behavioral support, this book explains both the theory and the methodology of antecedent control. Drawing on research and clinical experience, the authors -- a group of distinguished experts in the field -- explain how well-designed stimulus control procedures can lead to more diverse education, therapeutic, and habilitation options than can traditional reactive methods. Addressing behavior disorders that are commonly associated with a range of diagnoses, syndromes, and disabilities, the assessment and treatment techniques in this book are effective for both children and adults. Comprehensive and timely, this book is ideal for researchers, clinicians, consultants, behavior specialists, special educators, and psychologists.
