A behavior analyst developed an intervention which included extinction to decrease
uncooperative behavior in a three-year old. Since the behavior had an attention function, the
intervention involved withholding attention until the child complied with a request. Which of

effectiveness of the extinction procedure (mark all that apply)?
A) The intervention included a component to reinforce cooperative behavior.
B) There were procedures included to manage induced aggression if it occurred.
C) The family was instructed to not tell the child about the contingency that was in place for
uncooperative behavior.
D) All family members were trained in the procedure and implemented the intervention.
E) Family members were instructed to ignore most of the child's uncooperative behavior.
