Intervention for perseverative speech (Kuntz et al., 2020)

The client is insisting on talking about her preferred topics but needs to be able to tolerate non-preferred topics as well to engage socially with others

The client's peers might accidentally reinforce the repetitive speech

Response interruption and redirection (RIRD)

Conversation session with a participating peer or other person who will interrupt and prompt to change topics throughout practice sessions.

Limited interest in other topics may make if difficult for the behavior to generalize to a natural setting.

Leveraging restrictive behavior for interactive play (Watkins et al., 2019)

Direct teachiing of new subjects, research what peers are interested in, takes time. Deliver reinforcement consistenly. DO not get discouraged as this will take time.

Intervention for perseverative speech (Kuntz et al., 2020)

We would teach Katie to identify the social cues by not looking at her and not responding to her when she does not engage in appropriate or on topic speech.

We need to teach not only the teachers, but her peers.

Augmented competing stimulus assessment (Hagopian et al., 2020)

• May be very useful in providing individuals access to programs and new environments (such as listening to headphones instead of self-talk at a vocational placement or chewing gum in the community instead of mouthing objects)
• Recent research provides options for teaching individuals to engage with more stimuli, addressing the issue of identifying an effective stimulus
• It is easy to implement a CSA and is not at all restrictive

Behavior is maintained by automatic reinforcement and presents a problematic topography which might be replaced with an alternative response (interaction with stimuli)

Intervention for perseverative speech (Kuntz et al., 2020)

Kate can be taught social cues of peers of when they may become disinterested in conversation. Katie can be prompted and receive reinforcement for talking about peer's topics of interest.

Generalization may be difficult if the peer group has already decreased engaging with Katie due to past restricted conversations.

The procedure involves an extinction procedure where eye contact and engagement is withdrawn for perseverative speech, a DRA (responding to comments, questions and back and forth engagement) for appropriate speech, and redirection and prompting when perseverative speech occurs.

There may be problem behaviour around the extinction or redirection and prompting.

Is necessary a modeling of new interesting argument. In case the repetition of argument don't change the trainer need to stop the conversation.

Difficult conctat the reinforcer the first time

Response interruption and redirection (RIRD)

Block repetitive conversations Katie typically engages in and guide her to engage in more varied conversation skills.
May need to teach additional conversation skills.

Could reduce motivation to have conversations with others if preferred subjects are blocked.
Need to yea h social cues for listener disinterest.

This strategy is researched and has positive outcomes, all team members will need to implement similarly

There may be a social impact on katies life if not treated

Intervention for perseverative speech (Kuntz et al., 2020)

implementation has to be done with other individuals and practiced repeatedly

The child may feel discouraged and may be uninterested in others

Intervention for perseverative speech (Kuntz et al., 2020)

Minimize the attention during persistent speech, avoid eye contact or respond questions.

The generalization is unknow.

-use the BST to train caregivers in responding to perseverative speech
The intention is to provide less attention to the perseverative speech with quick responses so Katie can learn that when she engages in perseverative speech her attention from caregivers is going to decrease and her speech is going to be disrupted with alternative conversations. But when she engages in listening and responding in flexible conversations she will get attention of caregivers.

obstacles may include is perseverative speech isn't being reinforced by attention and instead is automatically reinforced we may need to include additional interventions to support flexible conversations.
Other obstacles is clearly creating client dignity when the use of peers are involved in the process. And if peers are not involved how to generalizing this skill in natural environments with peers.
