Efficiency in functional analysis of problem behavior: A quantitative and qualitative review.

abstract：:Thousands of children are injured or killed each year in school bus accidents. A significant number of these tragic incidents is precipitated by disruptive child behavior that distracts the drivers from their difficult task. Two experiments were conducted which addressed this problem. For both experiments an automated...
