Use of a token economy to increase compliance during hemodialysis

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

We report the effects of using a token economy to treat noncompliant behavior in a 10-year-old male hemodialysis patient. The results of an ABAB design indicated that the intervention increased compliant behavior during both treatment phases and that compliance was maintained at 3- and 6-month follow-up observations.
