Treatment of Polydipsia Using a Contingency Management Procedure Incorporating a Self-Management Approach: A Single Case Study
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 June 2009
Abstract
Polydipsia is a disorder that has received little attention in the research literature. Treatment has been mainly confined to medical or pharmacological intervention. Few studies have reported the use of contingency management techniques and none have sought to encourage self-management. This study shows how such a procedure brought about a significant change in rates of water drinking in a thirty-one year old man with a mild learning disability.
