About this document

Clark Et Al. (1973) by juliabragamont is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The study investigates the effectiveness of timeout as a punishing stimulus for controlling disruptive behavior in a preschool child diagnosed with mental retardation. It demonstrates that timeout can effectively reduce disruptive behaviors, with a non-linear relationship observed between the percentage of responses punished and the frequency of those responses. The findings suggest that intermittent schedules of timeout may be as effective as continuous punishment in managing such behaviors.
