Diurnal bruxism among individuals with intellectual disabilities is often measured on the basis of its auditory products, thereby precluding the contingent presentation of stimuli during silent bruxism events. Electromyography (EMG) offers a technological solution to the identification of all bruxism events. EMG has not been previously evaluated in nonvocal clients with intellectual disabilities in the context of functional analysis and treatment. In the current series of analyses, we suggest a set of methods to implement EMG technology with this population. In Analysis 1, we propose a strategy for systematically identifying bruxism events. In Analysis 2 we evaluate an EMG staff-training package with naïve interventionists without past experience with EMG technology. Finally, Analysis 3 presents a practical example of this method during the functional analysis and treatment of a client with frequent diurnal bruxism.

评估和治疗期间昼夜磨牙症的肌电图

智障人士的昼夜磨牙症通常是根据其听觉产品来衡量的，从而排除了在无声磨牙症事件中偶然出现的刺激。肌电图 (EMG) 为识别所有磨牙症事件提供了一种技术解决方案。之前没有在功能分析和治疗的背景下对智力障碍的非声音客户进行 EMG 评估。在当前的系列分析中，我们建议使用一组方法来对这一人群实施 EMG 技术。在分析 1 中，我们提出了一种系统识别磨牙症事件的策略。在分析 2 中，我们评估了一个 EMG 员工培训包，其中包括过去没有 EMG 技术经验的初级干预者。最后，
