  • Title: A behaviorally-oriented activities therapy for program for adolescents.
    Author: Chasanoff E, Schrader C.
    Journal: Adolescence; 1979; 14(55):569-77. PubMed ID: 517224.
    Abstract:
    A behaviorally-oriented activities therapy program was designed and implemented with adolescents who manifested problems in school, at home, and with peers. Baseline measures for target behaviors were taken within the activities therapy program and, after a behavioral analysis, specific techniques were chosen to remediate problems. Techniques employed included: contingency contracting, assertiveness training, relaxation training, and cognitive restructuring. Evaluation of the effectiveness of each program was performed through daily measurement of the frequency of the occurrence of the target behaviors. Three case studies are presented which are illustrative of the range of programs which can be successfully implemented with this population.
