abstract="The treatment of a 16-year-old severely mentally retarded and blind female client exhibiting severe biting of self and others consisted of the contingent application of an aversive gustatory stimulus (Tabasco Sauce), brief timeout, DRO, and contingent restraint against biting while in time-out. This is the first use of Tabasco as the aversive stimulus against biting. Deceleration of biting was rapid and maintained for 20 months after initiation of treatment.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
