Callous and Unemotional Traits and Social Cognitive Processes in a Sample of Community-Based Aggressive Youth

Psychopathic traits are associated with violent, aggressive behaviors and recidivism in adulthood. To increase positive treatment outcomes, it is arguably beneficial to identify and treat psychopathy as early as possible. Furthermore, because research shows that the effectiveness of behavior modification is likely to be affected by the social information-processing patterns of aggressive children, it is important to understand the relationship between conduct-disordered traits and social cognitions. The results of this study showed that callous/unemotional traits in a community-based sample of behavior-disordered youth (57 male, 19 female; 10-19 years of age; 63% African American) significantly predicted values in obtaining a tangible reward and getting into trouble or being punished. However, callous/unemotional traits, impulsivity/conduct problems, and narcissism failed to predict positive expectations regarding receiving a tangible reward, reducing aversive treatment, and demonstration of dominance. Implications for these results are presented.

Drug self-disposal skills training on the social function of patients with schizophrenia

Objective To investigate the drug self-disposal skills training on the social function of patients with schizophreni a. Methods Sixty-five patients with schizophrenia were divided into study group (33 cases, drug self-disposal skills training plus antipsychorotropic drugs) and the control group (32 cases, usually psychological therapy plus anti-psychotropic drugs). Drug self-disposal skiills training was lasted for 8 weeks, the effect was assessed by social Functional Disability Screening Schedule (SDSS) . Results The treatnent for 8 weeks, drug self-disposal skills training and psychological treatment in general improved the patients'social function in improving the professional ability to wor k, marriage functions, their parents, to improve the social withdrawal, responsibility and planning aspects. Drug self-disposal skills training had more general good effect of psychological treatment ( P ＜0.01 ) . Conclusions Drug self-disposal skills training can improve patients' participation initiative, the activation of the motivational system to improve the effectiveness of behavior modification to the social interpersonal skills, to achieve the purpose of reconstruction of the social function.

Applications of behavior modification to community health education: the case of heart disease prevention.

Principles of behavior modification increasingly have been applied to community health education and offer considerable promise for public health in general. Behavior modification procedures can be conceptualized in a 2 X 2 framework with desired goals being either to increase and strengthen or decrease and weaken behavior, and procedures producing essentially positive or negative consequences. Modifying specific behavioral risk factors for the prevention of heart disease may include the use of positive reinforcement, shaping, differential reinforcement, negative reinforcement, and "punishment." The use of an adequate "behavior analytic" history, highly acceptable interventions, observable effects, inexpensive materials and procedures, community-owned programs, and other practical guidelines can help optimize the effectiveness of behavior modification for health education in the community.

Comparison of family-based behavior modification and nutrition education for childhood obesity.

The effects of behavior modification and nutrition education procedures were compared for overweight children, aged 6–12, and their mothers. Information on diet and exercise were included for mothers and children in both groups. The groups were provided equivalent information on appropriate diet and exercise but differed in the use of behavioral therapy procedures to prompt and reinforce habit change for the behavior modification group. Results showed behavior modification was associated with superior relative weight change compared to nutrition education. The weight losses of children and parents in the behavior modification group were very similar (rho = .75), while parent-child weight loss was unrelated in the nutrition education group (rho = ¯.26).

The effect of a token economy on dietary compliance for children on hemodialysis.

Adherence to dietary restrictions is a recurring problem for children on hemodialysis. The effect of behavior modification in maintaining dietary control is reported for four patients aged 11 to 18 years. Weight gain, potassium level, and blood urea nitrogen were utilized as criteria measures. A token reinforcement program implemented by the hemodialysis team resulted in significant changes in the dietary pattern of the children. The average weight gain between dialysis sessions for the four subjects during treatment was reduced by 45% and the degree of weight fluctuation was lessened. Potassium levels and BUN were controlled to their appropriate level for subjects who initially exceeded the criterion level. With the withdrawal of weight gain from the contingency system, increase of weight gain between dialysis sessions was noted for all subjects.

The effects of behavior modification on the attitudes of delinquents

This study investigates whether exposure to the rehabilitation techniques of behavior modification changes the attitudes of delinquents so that they more closely approximate the norms of the community. The attitudes of delinquent boys in a community based home that uses behavior modification principles are contrasted over time with a control group of eighth grade boys from the same community. The results suggest that the delinquent boys tend to improve dramatically in self-esteem and from externality to internality, actually scoring more favorably in each case than the control group at post-test. They improve also in achievement orientation but they remain below the control group. Finally, the delinquent boys are slightly less Machiavellian than the control group and this did not change across time.

The effectiveness of behavior modification with spasmodic and congestive dysmenorrhea

Women reporting menstrual discomfort were diagnosed by the Menstrual Symptom Questionnaire as suffering from either spasmodic or congestive dysmenorrhea. Six groups were constructed to form a (congestive vs. spasmodic) × 3 (behavior therapy therapy vs. pseudotreatment vs. waiting list) factorial design. The behavior therapy groups received relaxation combined with premenstrual imagery, and the pseudo-treatment groups engaged in open discussion of personal problems of dysmenorrhea. The Symptom Severity Scale was administered prior to and following treatment as an index of the degree to which menstrual symptoms were experienced. The major finding of clinical significance was that the behavior therapy treatment procedure was highly effective in reducing the reported symptomatology of women suffering from spasmodic dysmenorrhea whereas this approach was not effective in reducing the symptomatology of women suffering from congestive dysmenorrhea. The results are discussed in terms of the need to differentiate type of dysmenorrhea before proceeding with the treatment program herein described.

The skeletal correlates of behavioral modification in the laboratory mouse (Mus musculus).

The effects of behavioral modification on the skeletal morphology of the laboratory mouse (Mus musculus) are investigated. Climbing, with increased prehensile use of the foot, is found to bring about significant changes in metatarsal and long bone morphology. Differences in metatarsal robusticity related to weight-bearing differences associated with different locomotor patterns are reported for a natural history setting for Peromyscus.
