Abstract

Momentary Differential Reinforcement of Low Rate Behavior (DRL) in a Changing Criterion Design was used to decrease wandering in a female middle school student with a mild intellectual disability diagnosis. In this procedure, since a momentary DRL procedure was used, every two minutes the student running the experiment would observe the participant. If the participant was walking with the group at that moment, reinforcement and praise was given.
