Abstract

The sleep-awakening disruption of an adolescent with developmental disabilities was treated using an antecedent control intervention that identified his consistent time of wake-up, provided the presence of a preferred staff in his bedroom, and prompted social interaction from staff before challenging behaviors occurred. Positive findings were documented using a combined reversal and multiple baseline across settings design, with results maintained through a 9-month follow-up. A partial component analysis of the intervention plan suggested that the presence of preferred staff was the influential antecedent variable.
