NCT ID NCT05537610

First seen Apr 29, 2026 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026

Summary

This study tests a therapy method to reduce the return of problem behavior (like aggression or self-injury) in children when they don't get what they want. Researchers will compare two approaches in 30 children aged 3-17 who have frequent problem behavior despite prior treatment. The goal is to see if alternating sessions where the child can and cannot have their way helps prevent relapse.
