Presented by Dr. Dan Mitteer

Approximately 94% of caregivers of children with autism report at least one form of challenging behavior (Jang et al., 2011), with 68% reporting severe challenging behavior like aggression or self-injurious behavior (Kanne & Mazurek, 2010). Thus, it is likely that professionals who provide services for individuals with autism will encounter severe challenging behavior. Unfortunately, such severe behavior can pose risks to the client or others, including tissue damage, sprained or broken bones, and concussions. For example, in a survey of registered behavior technicians, 75% of these professionals reported having sustained an injury while managing severe challenging behavior (Columbo et al., 2021). The purpose of this talk is to describe precautions and protective gear that practitioners ought to consider when working with children with severe challenging behavior as well as conceptual or practical limitations that arise from the use of such measures.
