Abstract | The authors describe the background for and explore the use of a unique apartment-like setting, complete with observational facilities, in which the parents of a hyperactive, aggressive boy were trained in the application of behavioral principles. Procedures consisted of having the entire family live in this setting for 5 consecutive days where they received training via instructional materials, modeling and feedback. The family then returned home, maintaining contact with the trainer/consultant only by telephone. The data presented show significant reductions in the rates of non-compliances and destructive acts toward people and property. In addition, programs devised independently by the mother and procedures used for a school program are presented. Results are discussed with reference to the use of a residence unit as a device in the initial phases of parent training in behavior modification and data collection and as an aid in maximizing professional efficiency.
