Not a terribly surprising outcome to behavior analysts, preference prevails over skills.
Listening to Learners
Problem behaviors during work time
Excessive reinforcement just to complete a simple vocational task
Resorting to physical escape extinction procedures
Escape from demands is a common function of severe problem behavior (i.e., Hanley, Iwata & McCord, 2003). Listening to learner’s when problem behaviors are occurring during work tasks, especially when it is some but not all work tasks, may be the key to improving performance and long-term outcomes. When escape-motivated behaviors require a increased intensity of the behavioral interventions, it may be more effective to take a critical look at the work tasks and invest in an assessment of learner preference. This is especially true of the goals and work activities designed for adolescents and young adults.
