这项研究试图将功能方法论扩展到习惯的评估和治疗。在一项描述性评估表明咳嗽在进食时发生后，一项简短的功能分析表明，社会注意力是维持变量。结果表明，根据评估和分析数据得出的治疗方法迅速消除了咳嗽。我们讨论了在临床环境中使用功能分析程序对习惯进行治疗的适当性。
This study sought to extend functional methodology to the assessment and treatment of habits. After a descriptive assessment indicated that coughing occurred while eating, a brief functional analysis suggested that social attention was the maintaining variable. Results demonstrated that treatment, derived from the assessment and analysis data, rapidly eliminated the cough. We discuss the appropriateness of using functional analysis procedures for deriving treatments for habits in a clinical setting.
