โœฆ Synopsis

The term establishing operation (EO) refers to an event that alters the reinforcement eects of a particular stimulus. Although EOs have received more attention in the basic, non-human literature, reports of EO manipulations in the treatment of aberrant behavior are increasingly appearing. We discuss EO interventions for behaviors maintained by social positive reinforcement (e.g., noncontingent reinforcement), social negative reinforcement (e.g., noncontingent escape, curricular revision, demand fading), and automatic reinforcement (e.g., environmental enrichment, noncontingent stimulation, reduced aversive stimulation). Suggestions for future research concerning both speciยฎc EO interventions and the general manipulation of EOs as a behaviorchange technique are provided.

## Abstract The present study examined the behavior decelerative effects of combined imipramine (tofranil) and behavior modification in a severely retarded, depressed autistic man. A simple interrupted timeโ€series design was conducted and the primary data analytic techniques consisted of modified t
