Abstract
Over 60 published studies of treatment for self-injurious behavior were analyzed. The analysis involved 17 methodological factors which were considered important inclusions in research and reports in this area. Some of the factors evaluated were: quality of subject descriptions, inclusion or omission of reliability data, generalization information, and follow-up procedures. A reference table is provided, listing each study and its respective ratings in the various categories. A brief summary and suggestions for future research are included in the accompanying text.Keywords
