The social play of two behaviorally disordered preschool children during four activities. A multiple baseline study.

The effect of contingent teacher attention on the social play of two behaviorally disordered preschool children was investigated. Using a multiple baseline design with reversal conditions, social play was measured on four activities: pegs and pegboard, athletic ball, blocks, and water pail. Baseline data indicated considerable variability in the amount of social play across the four activities. The initiation of the experimental contingency produced a dramatic increase in percentage of time in which the subjects engaged in social play. The implications of these results for the remediation of isolate behavior in young children with multiple behavioral deficits are discussed.

An outbreak of copycat fire raising.

A dangerous outbreak of fire setting occurred on two wards of a Bristol Psychiatric Hospital, in which six patients set eight fires over a five-week period. One was the Intensive Care Unit, the other an admission ward serving the inner city of Bristol. Five of the six patients had moved between the two wards. The sequence of fires is in part explained by 'copycat' behaviour. The fires were set at a time when the hospital was particularly vulnerable because of major service changes. We emphasize the institutional and situational variables that led to disturbed behaviour in a vulnerable group of individuals, with inadequate controls over tension and anxiety.

Communication issues in Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

Children with Attention-deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) evidence a variety of pragmatic deficits and are particularly at risk for other speech and language disorders. Speech and language pathologists in educational settings have the special expertise needed for interpretation and treatment of communication issues associated with ADHD. They should contribute more directly to the multi-modality treatment team in creating management programs for these children.
