Functional analysis and treatment of coprophagia.
MedLine Citation:
PMID:  21541128     Owner:  NLM     Status:  MEDLINE    
Abstract/OtherAbstract:
In the current investigation, functional analysis results suggested that coprophagia, the ingestion of fecal matter, was maintained by automatic reinforcement. Providing noncontingent access to alternative stimuli decreased coprophagia, and the intervention was generalized to two settings.
