title: A positive approach to the treatment of aggressive brain injured clients.
abstract: A broad spectrum behavior therapy approach was used to treat physical aggression in five brain injured clients. The approach employed high density reinforcement, reinforcer sampling, environmental control, selection of appropriate responses, inconvenience review, self-control training and self-monitoring. All five clients showed significant decreases in aggression immediately after the implementation of the program.
