The current study examined resurgence of problem behavior during thinning of multiple schedules of reinforcement following functional communication training replicating previous research (Briggs et al., 2018). Data were analyzed at each thinning step from subjects enrolled in an intensive day treatment program over a 5‐year period. Results indicated that of the 239 thinning steps analyzed, resurgence was observed in 97 of those steps (40.6%), similar to results of Briggs et al. (2018). The data were also analyzed to estimate the magnitude of resurgence when it was observed. In the first session after the thinning step, the rate of problem behavior observed was 7 times higher than the average of the 5 sessions pre‐thinning step.

功能沟通训练后，在多个强化计划的细化过程中复发的流行率

当前的研究检查了在重复先前研究的功能交流训练之后，在减少多个强化计划期间问题行为的重新出现（Briggs 等人，2018 年）。对参加为期 5 年的强化日间治疗计划的受试者在每个细化步骤中的数据进行分析。结果表明，在分析的 239 个细化步骤中，在其中 97 个步骤（40.6%）中观察到回潮，与 Briggs 等人的结果相似。(2018)。还对数据进行了分析，以估计观察到的回潮幅度。在细化步骤后的第一个会话中，观察到的问题行为率比细化前 5 个会话的平均值高 7 倍。
