I learned it as the 4 A's, following Iwata and colleagues. But when I got
into behavioral gerontology, it was the 4 A's plus a whole lot of EO's to
consider.

To the behavioral medicine community,
I'm a co-instructor for FIT's online ABA program. During our class, we were
discussing a case where a young man began engaging in self injury. It was
later discovered, he had impacted, infected wisdom teeth. After surgery and
a course of anti-biotics, the self harm abated, suggesting the self injury
may have served an automatic function. We discussed the 4 functions, which I
often teach as the 4 A's: automatic (autonomic), access (tangible),
avoidance (escape), attention.
One of the students said she learned the functions as:
SEAT ME: sensory/automatic, escape, attention, acc. to tangibles, medical
and elicited...where would the impacted wisdom teeth fall within this
schema? I was thinking of it as clearly a medical issue (not self stim. bx,
etc. which is what I think of when I think of automatic bx).
Part of my response was:
As for the toothache, the behavior of self injury is evoked from the
existing EO/antecedents and maintained by the negatively reinforcing
contingency of "removing pain". That, to me, is an automatic function: the
individual would probably (and you could test it) engage in the behavior in
the absence of social consequences. Whether that is sensory, automatic or
medical is probably an issue of semantics but semantics are important.
So, where are you all with function? Is it the 4 A's or SEAT-ME? Just fyi, I
would like to post private replies on the FIT discussion board so the
students see what the behavioral community thinks. The course if full of
very enthusiastic students, many of whom are interested in ABA and
alternative treatments: GCF diet, etc.
Thanks for any and all feedback.

PS- I was reading the latest JABA which had an article about teaching safe
practices in hospitals: Thomas R. Cunningham and John Austin. Using goal
setting, task clarification, and feedback to increase the use of the
hands-free technique by hospital operating room staff. Pp. 673-678.

Yes indeed! I just downloaded the two additional articles
you listed below. I should be well prepared to make the case that a
behavior-analytic approach can help people change their eating and activity
choices. If I?m successful, the hospital will agree to participate in a
pilot test, which could provide some good data on the effectiveness of the
website that I have been developing in helping people make changes in both
eating and activity choices and the effect on health measures.

Cool...I hope that this helps...In a few months, you will just have to
say - let me check out that new journal- Behavior Analysis in Sports,
Health, Fitness and Behavioral Medicine at www.behavior-analyst-online.org
<http://www.behavior-analyst-online.org/> and you will find soe good stuff.
Speaking of BAO- look at:
Anderson, D. A., Shapiro, J. R., & Lundgren J. D. (2001) The
Behavioral Treatment of Obesity. The Behavior Analyst Today, 2 (2), 133-150

Joe,
This time I was able to download the article. Thanks so much. As usual,
you have been very helpful. I also found the copy of the ABA:I newsletter
with your article. I noticed that I had already marked some of the
references.

Here is the Wing article again:
http://www.obesityresearch.org/cgi/content/full/11/suppl_1/3S#B2
It is in Pdf- maybe you need to update the PDF. Also the title of the
article is: Obesity Research 11:3S-6S (2003)
Behavioral Interventions for Obesity: Recognizing Our Progress and Future
Challenges Rena R. Wing
I personally hate everything that I write so never keep it or even read
it again. I think that ABA keeps the newsletters online. Craig do you have a
copy?

Joe,
Thanks for the link to the Poston article. I got that one. But I could
not get the obesity research article for some reason. Would you check the
link?
Also, would you happen to have a copy of the article that you and Craig
Thomas wrote for the ABA:I newsletter? That sounds promising.

For children, I would rcommend:

year outcomes of behavioral family-based treatment for childhood obesity.

For adults- Craig Thomas and I did a SIG update article for the last
issue of the ABA:I new letter - not the current one. We have some references
in that article.

Joe and colleagues,
I have the opportunity to convince my local hospital to try a
behavioral approach to helping its employees reduce their disease risk. It
would be great if I could provide a reference on the effectiveness of
behavioral approaches in helping people change their eating and activity
choices. Joe previously sent me some references (thanks), but I?m wondering
if there are any I have overlooked. If you could only recommend one study
(or perhaps a book that summarizes the benefits of behavioral approaches to
improving health) which one would you recommend?

The following page is on the professional practice of behavior

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professional_practice_of_behavior_analysis#Curr

It has a section on behavior analysis in the hospital setting.
Please take a moment to look over and add to that section.
