Abstract: Two studies investigated self-injurious behavior (SIB) in a man with profound disabilities. Results indicated that the rate of SIB varied depending on contextual conditions and behavioral state, and a treatment plan that involved manipulation of the environment depending on behavioral states and the use of Fluphenazine reduced SIB.
