In this workshop, Dr. Fabiano discusses the history and evidence-base for time out from positive reinforcement. First, Dr. Fabiano describes attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and the reasons why time-out may be effective to manage some of the behaviors associated with this disorder. Next, he describes the overarching principles of time-out and how time-out can sometimes be considered controversial. Lastly, he discusses various considerations for establishing a time-out procedure and how to trouble-shoot the procedure. Videos and case-examples are presented throughout the workshop. Runtime: 150 minutes.

Impairment and disability are widely used terms, yet considerable disagreement exists as to their relationship—especially when impairment means different things to different professionals in the fields of mental health, medicine, and education. Although diagnostic criteria for various disorders are clearly detailed in the DSM-IV and elsewhere, criteria for impairment remain elusive. And patients with severe limitations but minimal symptoms, or the reverse, further complicate the discussion. The first in-depth treatment of the theory, definition, and evaluation of this core concept, Assessing Impairment: From Theory to Practice cuts through the confusion and cross-talk. Leading scholars and...
