“…Other analyses have examined change between nothing and access to an item. For example, in the tangible condition described by Moore, Mueller, Dubard, Roberts, and Sterling-Turner (2002), preferred items were given, removed, and returned at various times, arranging transitions in both directions. The current analysis differs in that transitions in both directions were programmed independent of responding, whereas more commonly, the transitions analogous to the termination transition are programmed contingent on the passage of time and the transitions analogous to the initiation transitions occur only contingent on the target behavior.…”

“…Moore et al (2002) demonstrated the need to evaluate the potential confound of verbal attention during a tangible condition of a functional analysis. They compared the effects of a tangible condition with and without verbal attention with a 6-year-old girl who engaged in self-injurious behavior.…”

A brief experimental analysis was used to compare the effects of the presence of tangible objects in an alone condition following an inconclusive functional analysis of screaming and handmouthing behavior of an 8-year-old boy. The alone condition with tangibles involved having toys available throughout the session with no interaction from the therapist and produced a higher percentage of intervals with screaming and handmouthing. The study demonstrates the importance of evaluating the effects of the presence of tangible items during a functional analysis.

“…Além disso, atenção verbal (e.g., "Você quer o doce?") liberada simultaneamente com um item tangível contingente ao comportamento-problema pode confundir os resultados da análise funcional 55 . Pacientes podem estar usando equipamentos de proteção (e.g., capacete com proteção na face) para prevenir os danos físicos da emissão de autolesivos.…”

ResumoObjetivo: Apresentar e analisar estudos que mostram como o comportamento autolesivo (SIB) relaciona-se funcionalmente com mudanças no ambiente, em geral dependentes do comportamento. Essa descrição tem sido chamada de análise funcional e torna possível, por meio de estratégias experimentais, determinar quais são as mudanças ambientais relevantes na manutenção do SIB. Método: Quarenta e seis artigos empíricos, publicados entre 1991 e 2010, foram encontrados na revisão feita nos seguintes bancos de dados: Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index e Arts & Humanities Citation Index. Foram analisados em mais detalhes 25 artigos aplicados que se baseiam em métodos empíricos de análise funcional e propõem tratamentos para SIB. Artigos teóricos, de revisão ou que discutiam criticamente o procedimento de análise funcional não foram incluídos na revisão. Resultados: Entre as mudanças ambientais relevantes na manutenção do SIB, a literatura analisada mostra que o SIB pode depender de apresentação de atenção, evitação (ou fuga) de demandas, ou não depender de qualquer fonte externa de estimulação. Esses resultados esclarecem sobre os princípios comportamentais básicos envolvidos na manutenção do SIB: reforçamento positivo, reforçamento negativo ou reforçamento automático. Conclusão: É apontada a necessidade da análise funcional de SIB para tratamentos que visem reduzir esse comportamento. Por fim, defende-se que intervenções comportamentais podem ser inseridas em programas de saúde.

AbstractObjective: To present and analyze studies that sought to describe how self-injurious behavior (SIB) is functionally related to environment changes. This description has been called functional analysis and makes it possible, by means of experimental strategies, to determine which environmental changes are relevant to the maintenance of SIB. Method: Forty-six empirical articles published between 1991 and 2010 were found in the review based on studies indexed in the Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index and Arts & Humanities Citation Index databases. We analyzed, in more detail, 25 applied articles that have used empirical methods of functional analysis and treatments for SIB. Results: The literature reviewed shows that the SIB may depend on presentation of attention, avoidance (or escape) of demands, or do not depend on any external source of stimulation. These results shed new light on the basic behavioral principles that can contribute to the maintenance of SIB: positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, or automatic reinforcement. Discussion: It is pointed out the necessity of functional analysis of SIB to base treatments that reduce this behavior. Finally, we argue that behavioral interventions can be put into health programs.
