Abstract

The present study involves a replication and extension of previous research examining distance fading to decrease inappropriate mealtime behavior and increase liquid consumption from a cup. The presentation of a cup of water was associated with high levels of inappropriate behavior and low levels of consumption. A cup distance fading procedure was used to systematically expose the participant to a cup of water that initially resulted in high levels of inappropriate mealtime behavior and no consumption. Inappropriate mealtime behavior decreased and consumption increased during the distance fading intervention. Implications for future research and practice are provided.
