The Use of High-Probability Requests to Increase Compliance with Instructions to Take Medication

Abstract

A simple, positive procedure was used to increase the number of times that a woman with severe disabilities complied with requests to take prescribed oral medication. The procedure involved asking the woman to follow a number of requests with which she typically complied, reinforcing her compliance with these requests, and then presenting the request to take the medication. The procedure was implemented by direct-care staff during their daily ongoing responsibilities and was functionally related to increases in the number of times that she complied with the request to take her medication.
