Abstract
Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) and extinction (EXT) have been used to successfully reduce problem behavior (Athens & Vollmer, 2010; Brown et al., 2020; Kunnavatana et al., 2018). Though effective, there are unwanted side effects of EXT such as resurgence and extinction-induced aggression (Lerman et al., 1999). DRA without EXT is also effective in reducing problem behavior (Athens & Vollmer, 2010); however, it is unclear how well it must be implemented to maintain treatment effects. The current study replicates and extends Glover (2021) by conducting a translational evaluation of treatment integrity errors with DRA without EXT on analogues to problem and alternative behavior. Thus far, results suggest omission errors for alternative behavior and combined errors are most detrimental within DRA without EXT.Keywords: differential reinforcement of alternative behavior, treatment integrity, translational study, problem behavior
