Although the mental health needs of mentally retarded persons are becoming increasingly acknowledged by service providers, psychotherapy is still neglected as a treatment modality. This paper provides a framework for considering issues related to the design, implementation, and evaluation of group psychotherapeutic endeavors to benefit dually diagnosed clients. A social systems approach to psychopathology is described to illustrate how a variety of potentially treatable aspects of dysfunctioning can be identified and selected as treatment goals for group psychotherapy with mentally retarded individuals. Treatment models are presented to assist in the pragmatic blending of behavioral and psychodynamic interventions that are relevant for conducting group psychotherapy with this population. Administrators and clinicians are provided with a prototype of how to establish and maintain cost-effective linkages between mental health and mental retardation agencies, so that dually diagnosed clients are not excluded from receiving services they need. Finally, process and outcome evaluation strategies are considered which might provide an empirical basis for documenting the effectiveness of group psychotherapy as a viable, nondrug approach to treating psychopathology in mentally retarded individuals. 相似文献

Independent toileting is an important developmental skill which individuals with developmental disabilities often find a challenge to master. Effective toilet training interventions have been designed which rely on a combination of basic operant principles of positive reinforcement and punishment. In the present study, the effectiveness of a reinforcement-based toilet training intervention was investigated with three children with a diagnosis of autism. Procedures included a combination of positive reinforcement, graduated guidance, scheduled practice trials and forward prompting. Results indicated that all procedures were implemented in response to urination accidents. A three participants reduced urination accidents to zero and learned to spontaneously request use of the bathroom within 7-11 days of training. Gains were maintained over 6-month and 1-year follow-ups. Findings suggest that the proposed procedure is an effective and rapid method of toilet training, which can be implemented within a structured school setting with generalization to the home environment. 相似文献
