abstract="Self-injurious hand biting was reduced in an autistic girl by using fine water mist combined with a loud statement of &quot;No!&quot; following the behavior, and verbal praise for appropriate behavior. The subject was 6 years old when the interventions were implemented, and she had been in arm and head restraints since infancy. A fading procedure that moved from a large to smaller bottles allowed generalization across settings and people. Treatment was effective at a 6-month follow-up in both structured and unstructured settings.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
