ABSTRAKIntellectutal disability (ID) adalah gangguan neurodevelopmental yang ditandai dengan keterbatasan dalam fungsi kecerdasan dan fungsi adaptif (konseptual, sosial, dan praktikal). Salah satu dampak dari keterbatasan kedua fungsi tersebut adalah masalah regulasi emosi, khususnya pada usia remaja. Dampaknya, anak lebih rentan pada masalah perilaku, seperti perilaku agresi verbal. Intervensi yang umum dilakukan untuk mengatasi masalah ini adalah intervensi ABA, salah satunya dengan metode differentiated reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektifitas differentiated reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI) untuk menurunkan perilaku agresi verbal pada remaja dengan moderate intellectual disability. Penelitian dilakukan dengan desain single case A-B. Penelitian juga melibatkan teknik operant extinction dan reinforcement dalam intervensi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya penurunan perilaku agresi verbal pada remaja dengan moderate intellectual disability setelah menjalani intervensi perilaku dengan metode DRI. Partisipan juga lebih mampu meregulasi emosinya.Kata Kunci: Differentiated reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI), agresi verbal, remaja, moderate intellectual disability
EFFECTIVITY OF DIFFERENTIATED REINFORCEMENT OF INCOMPATIBLE BEHAVIOR (DRI) TO LOWER VERBAL AGGRESSION BEHAVIOR IN TEENAGER WITH MODERATE INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY
ABSTRACTIntellectutal disability (ID) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by limitations in intelligence functions and adaptive functions (conceptual, social, and practical). One of the effects of these limitations is problem with emotional regulation capability, especially in adolescence. As a result, children are more susceptible to behavioral problems, such as verbal aggression. A common intervention to overcome this problem is ABA intervention, one of which is the method is differentiated reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI). This study aims to determine the effectiveness of differentiated reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI) to reduce verbal aggression behavior in adolescent with moderate intellectual disability. The study was conducted with single-case A-B design. Research also involves operant extinction and reinforcement techniques in intervention. The results showed a decrease in verbal aggression behavior in adolescents with moderate intellectual disability after undergoing behavioral intervention with the DRI method. Participant also showed better emotional regulation strategy.
