Yоu аre а BCBA cоnsulting with оne of your client’s pаrents in the home setting. You just began providing services to them and you have observed some of the interactions they have had with their child during intervention implementation. You are including parent training in your services, so you have weekly meetings to debrief with them and discuss topics to improve fidelity and answer any questions. This past week, the parents were implementing extinction procedures for their child that wanted to escape taking a bath. The child screamed and hit until the parents were exhausted, so they let him elope. You explain that the need for consistency in extinction is important.
