Time-Out in the Treatment of Childhood Behavior Problems: |
| |
Abstract: | Even though time-out procedures have been subject to extensive empirical investigation and are often assumed to be the appropriate treatment for a variety of childhood behavior problems, there are implementation problems and complexities, which often go unrecognized in the literature. This article presents a comprehensive model detailing procedural parameters, as well as subject and situational factors, which should be explicitly recognized and considered in utilizing, and empirically investigating, time-out. Also presented are methodological and theoretical issues relevant to researches and practitioners. |
