  • Title: Noncontingent peer attention as treatment for disruptive classroom behavior.
    Author: Jones KM, Drew HA, Weber NL.
    Journal: J Appl Behav Anal; 2000; 33(3):343-6. PubMed ID: 11051579.
    Abstract:
    A functional analysis isolated peer attention as the primary maintaining variable for disruptive behavior displayed by a student with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Using a brief reversal design, noncontingent reinforcement was then shown to reduce disruptive behavior relative to the peer attention condition. Implications for assessing behavior disorders in mainstream school settings are discussed.
