  • Title: Reduction of self-injurious behavior using sensory integrative techniques.
    Author: Bright T, Bittick K, Fleeman B.
    Journal: Am J Occup Ther; 1981 Mar; 35(3):167-72. PubMed ID: 7234955.
    Abstract:
    Theoretical rationale and case study information are presented for the use of a sensory integrative approach to self-injurious behavior. The program described uses sensory integrative techniques and soft restraint to reduce face hitting in a 28-year-old, nonambulatory, profoundly retarded resident. The noncontingent application of the procedures has reduced the occurrence of self-injurious behavior during treatment periods from an average of 13.1 responses per minute to an average of 1.02 responses per minute.
