The contribution of ABA and psychiatry to the emerging model of positive behavioursupport
Royal College of Psychiatrists Faculty of Intellectual Disability Psychiatry Annual Conference 2016Dr Ashok Roy & Dr Sandy ToogoodCardiff September 29th 2016
Introduction
PBS emerging as the approach of choice.
RCP endorsed (2007 / 2015).
Questions about the definition of PBS and contribution of stakeholder and professional groups.
Overview
Review definitions of PBS.
Review contributions from psychiatry and behaviour analysis.
Review two case studies.
Discuss in small groups for 20 minutes.
Feedback and review to full group for 20 minutes.
Defining PBS
Comprehensive life-style change and quality of life.
Lifespan perspectives.
Ecological validity.
Stakeholder participation.
Social validity.
Systems change and multi-component intervention.
Emphasis on prevention.
Flexibility with respect to scientific practices.
Multiple theoretical perspectives.
(Carr et al. 2002)
Defining PBS
Values:
Prevention and reduction of challenging behaviour occurs within the context of increased quality of life..
Constructional approaches ... build stakeholder skills and avoid aversive and restrictive practices.
Stakeholder participation.
(Gore et al. 2013)
Defining PBS
Theory:
Challenging behaviour develops to serve important functions for people.
Use of applied behaviour analysis to assess and support behaviour change.
Use of other complementary, evidence-based approaches to support behaviour change at multiple levels of a system.
(Gore et al. 2013)
Defining PBS
Process:
A data-driven approach to decision making.
Functional assessment to inform function-based intervention.
Multicomponent interventions to change behaviour (proactively) and manage behaviour (reactively).
Implementation support, monitoring and evaluation of interventions over the long term.
(Gore et al. 2013)
Defining PBS
This definition includes both preferred labels for PBS: approach and framework.
PBS is not inclusive of all approaches to behavioral support, but rather is restricted to only those approaches that share the qualities contained in the definition.
PBS is inclusive of strategies and approaches from an array of disciplines … and from evidence-based procedures that may currently exist in other fields or may emerge in the future.
Defines a PBS approach as dynamic and continually evaluating and incorporating relevant technology and knowledge.
It also promotes the critical analysis of strategies that are evidence-based or have emerging evidence.
(Kincaid et al. 2015)
Defining PBS
A tiered approach
Contribution of ABA – the Four term contingency
The four term contingency
– Motivative
– Discriminative
– Behaviour
– Consequences
Learning History
Rule governed behaviour
– Verbal rules that control behaviour.
– Describe and override contingencies of reinforcement and punishment.
– Rule-following is reinforced by contingencies.
Biopsychosocial perspectives from Psychiatry
High prevalence of comorbid conditions
Multiaxial diagnosis and formulation
– Psychiatric
– Intellectual (level of functioning)
– Developmental (ASD, ADHD)
– Physical
– Psychosocial ( environment, family)

Tom’s learning
history: self-
injury and
aggression
reliably evoke a
response from
staff and
remove
demands.
Staff learning
history:
responding to an
instance of self-
injury and
aggression reliably
terminates the
behaviour. Making
few demands
minimises risk of
self-injury and
aggression.

Diagnosis of autism and severe ID
High rate and high impact SIB and aggression since early childhood.
Excluded from all services and communities.

Working Hypothesis
Establishing operations, task

access to tangibles.
Internal mood state
determines the threshold at
which environmental
establishing operations come
into effect

Comments
Behavioural intervention or medication change alone would not have delivered these outcomes.
Systematic and evidence-based approach to selecting intervention components.
Intervention effects evaluated in detail with robust data.
