Abstract
This study addressed attention-maintained problem behaviors (spitting and disruptive vocalizing) of a child with autism. The intervention procedures consisted of service providers cleaning up the presence of saliva and demonstrating a ĝ€quietĝ€ cue when the child spit and vocalized respectively. In two single-case reversal designs, the procedures reduced both behaviors to low frequency. Factors responsible for intervention success are discussed.
