A study was conducted to assess the effects of redesigning the physical environment (i.e., the classroom) on the occurrence of self-stimulation, on-task behavior, inappropriate behavior, and inactivity. Three developmentally disabled males, diagnosed as autistic-type, participated. Data were collected using a withdrawal design. Results showed a decrease of self-stimulation and inactivity and an increase of on-task behavior. Inappropriate behavior remained unchanged across experimental conditions.
