Case Intervention Study on Problem Behavior in Children with Autism by Functional Behavior Assessment——The Application of the Tau-U Metrics
Problem behaviors of children with autism are quite common,among which self-injurious behaviors,aggressive behaviors and self-stimulating behaviors occur frequently,and their destructiveness and risk are worrisome.Through functional behavior assessment,this study analyzed the functional reasons behind three typical problem behaviors of preprimary children with autism(2-5 years old),designed corresponding intervention programs,and used a single subject the A-B-A Reversal-Replication experimental design to in-tervene the problem behaviors.Tau-U,a single subject study data analysis index,was used for analysis.The data showed that after 4 weeks of intervention,the frequency of problem behaviors of three autistic children was significantly reduced,and the intervention was effective.Studies have shown that the application of functional behavior assessment to diagnose the problem behavior of preprimary chil-dren with autism,and the implementation of intervention based on this can effectively eliminate the problem behavior and promote the establishment of adaptive behavior.
