Instruction in Functional Assessment Chapter 6 Alone Condition These are the standard experimental functional analysis conditions as described by Iwata, et al., 1994/1982, JABA, 27, 197-209 and Iwata et al., 2000. Purpose & Rationale: In the alone condition, the client is in a room by him/herself with no toys or activities (Note all safety concerns should be addressed and appropriate precautions taken). The therapist observes the client’s behavior for the purpose of data collection from a one-way mirror or video camera. This condition tests whether self-stimulation or automatic reinforcement is maintaining the client’s problem behavior by creating a situation in which low levels of stimulation exist and measuring whether the problem behavior occurs. If levels of the client’s problem behavior are worse in the alone condition compared to the other functional analysis conditions or do not differ across all conditions then automatic reinforcement may be maintaining the client’s problem behavior. Procedure: The client is placed in the therapy room alone, without any toys or materials that would provide a source of stimulation. The client’s problem behavior is measured. Purpose Automatic positive reinforcement Summary Of Condition Alone, no toys or materials Examples of client’s graphed levels of the problem behavior maintained by automatic positive reinforcement. A 96
Instruction in Functional Assessment Chapter 6 B As can be seen in the above graphs, frequency of the client’s behavior is either greater in the alone condition compared to the attention, demands, and play conditions (A) or high in all conditions (B). These data configurations provide evidence that the client’s problem behavior is being maintained by automatic positive reinforcement. 97
