The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the use of a demand assessment and modified functional analysis for identifying effective abolishing operations for escape-maintained challenging behavior. The study consisted of (a) a demand assessment to identify high-aversive, low-accuracy demands (i.e., demands associated with short latencies to challenging behavior and lower percentages of correct responding); (b) a modified functional analysis to assess the effect of immediate help for completing high-aversive, low-accuracy demands; and (c) a matched treatment evaluation. For two participants, we observed fewer instances of challenging behavior in the high-aversive, low-accuracy demand condition with immediate help. For one participant, we observed similar instances of challenging behavior across the two conditions. The results of this study provide evidence supporting the use of an assessment for identifying possible abolishing operations for escape-maintained challenging behavior to inform the treatment evaluation.
