ABSTRACT

The aim of the present work was the reduction of a motor stereotyped behavior of a 13-year-old girl diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, through the application of a behavioral training sequence based on discriminative learning and Differential Reinforcement of Incompatible Behavior (DRI). Base-line frequency and duration of the stereotyped behavior was recorded, then a five-phase training was developed, in which stereotyped behavior and reinforcer deliveries were reduced. Non-parametric U of Mann-Whitney tests were carried out for analyzing stereotyped behavior frequency and latency differences. Those statistic tests backed up significant differences. Findings were discussed in terms of stereotyped behavior susceptible of being reduced through discriminative learning and DRI, as well as the importance and design of enriched environments as preventive actions for the presence of stereotypies.
