Copyright policy )Behavior modification in the home: Siblings as behavior modifiers, parents as observers
It was hypothesized that siblings could function as effective behavior change agent for their behaviorally disturbed brother and sisters within the home environment. Further, it was predicted that parents could be trained to be reliable observers of their children's performance under these circumstances. The results of the study supported both predictions with siblings in two separate families demonstrating their ability to work with their brother or sister within the context of an ABAB reversal design. Parents were also shown to obtain consistently high reliability ratings when compared to outside observers. The judicious use of siblings as behavior modification aides is recommended as a treatment procedure.
