“…The most commonly reported form of discipline is response cost, typically the contingent removal of points or tokens (Bailey, Wolf, & Phillips, 1970;Barkeley, Hastings, Tousel, & Tousel, 1976;Fineman, 1968;Karacki & Levinson, 1970;Kaufman & O'Leary, 1972;Liberman, Ferris, Salgado, & Salgado, 1975;Moss & Rick, 1981;Phillips, 1968;Phillips, Phillips, Fixsen, & Wolf, 1971;Phillips, Wolf, Fixsen, & Bailey, 1976;Tyler, 1967). Response cost procedures can, however, involve direct privilege losses (Foder, 1977) or monetary fines (Meichanbaum, Bowers, & Ross, 1968).…”

Response cost procedures with adolescents in residential treatment have been widely used to discipline a variety of coercive behaviors. Unfortunately, token loss systems require a comprehensive token system for implementation. Brief work chores were evaluated as a possible substitute. Adolescent negative evaluations of peers ("rude talk") were targeted for reduction. A multiple baseline across settings design plus uncontrolled group data collected across baseline, treatment, and follow-up phases indicated that brief work chores suppressed negative evaluations. Use and limitations of work chore discipline procedures are discussed.

Patients on a behaviorally‐oriented inpatient psychiatric unit were asked to rate their perceptions of treatment outcome and the value of 16 program components in producing that outcome. Significant correlations were found between perceived outcome and positive evaluations of the overall behavioral treatment plan, individual meetings with nursing staff, individual meetings with team psychologists, assertion group training, and daily group therapy. Patients perceived individual meetings with the nursing staff to be the single most valuable program component among those related to favorable outcome. Implications for the increased utilization of nursing staff during a time of dwindling resources for mental health are discussed.
