Abstract

A portable device providing vibratory feedback was used for reducing excessive vocal loudness in a man with intellectual disability and autistic-like behaviours. The use of the device was combined with reinforcement. The data showed that the device (together with reinforcement) was rapidly effective in reducing the occasions of excessive vocal loudness and maintained the positive effects over time. Implications of the findings and limitations of the study are discussed.
