Rapid Clinical Evaluation of Sensory Integrative Therapy for Self-Injurious Behavior.

Dura, Jason R.; And Others

Mental Retardation, v26 n2 p83-87 Apr 1988

Sensory integrative therapy as a treatment for self-injurious behavior (SIB) was contrasted with an attention control condition involving a 15-year-old multiply handicapped boy. Lower rates of SIB during but not following treatment sessions were effected. Effects of such therapies are concluded to be highly variable across individuals. (Author/JDD)
