Summary
This study compares two behavioral treatments for people with intellectual disabilities who have severe self-injurious behavior that hasn't improved with standard therapy. About 16 participants aged 4 to 25 will be observed to see which treatment reduces self-injury and the need for protective gear. The goal is to find better ways to help those with treatment-resistant self-harm.
