In the first talk, Zoe Newman will present a study where multiple components of a behavioral sleep treatment package are evaluated with the goal of improving latencies to onset of sleep-conducive behavior after bedtime in a residential group home setting. In our second talk, Patrice Garrison will describe behavioral skills training intervention to teach caregivers to accurately perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) with infants. In the final talk, Jessica Herrod will present on the results of a large-N study on bowel movement training with individuals diagnosed with developmental disabilities.
