- Abstract
Although functional analysis (FA) methodology has been used to identify treatments for elopement, the results of some of these analyses have been confounded by the retrieval of participants. Recently, researchers have used latency-based FAs, which eliminate the retrieval component during a session, to assess elopement. In the current study, we replicated previous research using latency-based FAs to assess elopement exhibited by three children with autism. In addition, we evaluated function-based treatments for each participant. The treatments effectively decreased elopement for all participants, partially validating the latency-based FAs.
