  • Title: Comment on Starin and Fuqua's (1987) review of research on rumination and vomiting.
    Author: Mulick JA, Schroeder SR, Rojahn J.
    Journal: Res Dev Disabil; 1988; 9(4):433-40. PubMed ID: 3205938.
    Abstract:
    Starin and Fuqua seriously misread a critical study cited in their recent review in failing to characterize it as an experimental analysis of four treatment procedures, and therefore inappropriately criticized it for several shortcomings. This misreading and a tendency to equate vomiting with and without rumination compromise their conclusions regarding treatment choice. At the present time, the data base favors selection of several aversive procedures and the nonaversive satiation procedure over others, but the number of studies on nonaversive operant treatment procedures remains remarkably limited.
