Abstract

This self-management project examines a differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors (DRA) procedure aimed to decrease fingernail and skin picking during academic activities. The student self-recorded all instances of the target behavior and hypothesized the behavior to be automatically reinforced. Intervention consisted of having the student engage in the alternative behavior of playing with putty. The results found that the putty served as an effective alternative behavior to fingernail and skin picking, evidenced by a decrease in fingernail and skin picking.
