About this Bundle
Why is this topic important?
Elopement is one of the most common and dangerous behaviours encountered by behaviour analysts, with significant safety implications for autistic individuals and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. This bundle draws on both early and contemporary behaviour-analytic literature to cover the core concepts behind elopement, including patterns of occurrence, functional assessment methodology e.g., functional analysis and latency-based assessment, and a range of function-based treatment approaches addressing elopement maintained by access to tangible items, attention, chase, and automatically reinforcing stereotypy. Practitioners who complete this bundle will leave with a clearer understanding of how elopement is conceptualized and assessed from a behavioural perspective, along with an introductory awareness of the treatment strategies used to address its different maintaining functions.
Learning Objectives
Upon Completing this bundle, participants will be able to:
1. Describe patterns of elopement occurrence and the strategies caregivers commonly use to manage it.
2. Identify functional assessment approaches used to determine the variables maintaining elopement, including functional analysis and latency-based assessment methods.
3. Identify the procedural differences between traditional functional analysis and latency-based functional analysis in the assessment of elopement.
4. Identify common functions of elopement, including access to tangible items, attention, chase, and automatic reinforcement.
5. Describe function-based treatment strategies used to address elopement.
6. Describe considerations relevant to treating elopement without the use of extinction.
