“…Many practitioners are utilizing procedures that combine behavior therapy with other therapeutic approaches (Birk, 1970;Hersen, 1970;Marmor, 1971). Lazarus (1971) made a strong case for the need of combining therapeutic approaches in his book aptly named Behavior Therapy and Beyond.…”

Criticisms of behavior therapy were reviewed under the following main divisions: foundations of behavior therapy, symptom substitution, role of cognitions, complexity of implementation, and limitations of behavior therapy. The main problem is that behavior therapy theory is considerably simpler than its practice. This has resulted in many misconceptions and has pointed out the need for systematic studies of the practice of successful behavior therapists. ResumeExamen des critiques faites contre la therapie behaviorale sous quatre chefs principaux: les fondements d'une telle therapie, la substitution de symptomes, le role des facteurs cognitifs, la complexite de son utilisation, et les limites de cette therapie. Le probleme principal tient au fait que les fondements theoriques de cette therapie sont considerablement plus simples que sa pratique. II en resulte de multiples meprises et un besoin accru d'etudier systematiquement les fagons de proceder de ceux qui emploient cette therapie avec succes.

“…Consequently many therapists recognise the validity of a wide range of different treatment approaches. Hersen (1970) has commented on clinical evidence supporting the complementary use of behavioural and traditional psychotherapy*and notes that a number of therapists acknowledge similarities between behavioural techniques and traditional psychotherapy. Miller, Barrett and Hampe (1974) point out that all treatments can be reduced to four basic elements: (i) establishment of a relationship, (ii) clarification of the stimulus, (iii) desensitization of the stimulus, (iv) and confrontation of the stimulus.…”

The paper is a theoretical analysis of the evolution of the concepts related primarily to the definition and to the antecedents of self-injurious behavior (SIB). It was found that the definition of SIB as currently used contains surplus meanings unrelated to its scientific utility. At present, a restricted definition of SIB is not warranted because its basic parameters have not been studied adequately. Analysis of SIB taxonomies suggests two subclasses of SIB: social and nonsocial. Epidemiological studies of SIB suggest chronic and acute subsamples that differ in organicity, chronicity, and length of institutionalization. Ecological analysis suggests that a variety of antecedent conditions affect rates and topographies of SIB, e.g., ambient environmental conditions, background settings, situational demands, self-restraint, and type of daily routine activity. Implications were drawn for the organization of therapeutic environments, the study of covariation among collateral topographies, the dynamics of SIB responding, and sequential dependencies among SIB and related topographies.
