Abstract
The purpose of behavioral consultation is to train direct caregivers to assess, implement, and evaluate treatment programs to reduce maladaptive behavior.

The two case studies presented illlustrate the application of behavioral modification techniques. The article concludes with suggestions for overcoming the resistance of staff members to using behavior modification.Keywords
