Abstract
This study examines the effects of neurophysiological facilitation procedures on eating skills in four severely handicapped children. A reversal design is used to measure the effects of exteroceptive and proprioceptive stimulation on lip closure, rotary chewing, and spilling of food and drink from the mouth. Some improvements in eating skills were found in each student when facilitation procedures were administered.
