Abstract
A functional analysis involving interviews and direct observation was used to analyze the multiple disruptive behaviors of a kindergarten student. Following this analysis, an intervention that combined reinforcement and teacher-cued self-monitoring procedures was implemented using an A-B-A-B withdrawal design. The procedures produced a significant decrease in his disruptive behavior and changes in the functions of disruptions across experimental phases.Keywords
