Positive Approach to SIB
What those data represent

Imagine that’s your child…
You’d want numerous proven procedures:
Positive methods
Mild negative methods used only when necessary
For example, SIBIShttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCHtVLqJWpg&NR=1
Families are Transformed
When SIBIS device is used—SIB reduces so other skills can be taught. This is Jamey’s mother:
As the months passed, head hitting faded to a trickle. Jamey’s teacher wrote: “He’s gone from 32 hits last week to zero.” “The device is great,” wrote one of Jamey’s aides. “I spend more time teaching Jamey how to use a fork, than managing the SIB (self-injurious behavior).” Oh, happy, happy days!
A Graph of “O Happy Days”
“Across all of the SIBIS- active sessions combined, Donna received 32 electric stimulations lasting a total of 2.6 seconds.”

Some Data
Discussion
This article reports the results of intensive behavioral treatment for young autistic children.
O. Ivar Lovaas (1987). Behavioral Treatment and Normal Educational and Intellectual Functioning in Young Autistic Children. University of California, Los Angeles.
47% of the experimental group achieved normal intellectual and educational functioning in contrast to only 2% of the control group subjects.
IQ Changes Following ABA
Data: Early Intensive Behavior Interventions
Proportions of children who moved from delayed to
normal range on IQ (most also in regular classroomswithout specialized services):
Intensive ABA: 56/120 = 47%
Typical special ed: 11/58 = 19%
Intensive eclectic: 4/28 = 14%
Several uncontrolled studies corroborate these findings
Estimated savings from investment in early intensiveABA: $2 million+ per individual (Jacobson, Mulick, &Green, 1998)
