Although treatments for elopement (leaving an assigned area or a caregiver without permission) and dropping (falling to the floor) have been reported in the literature, there are no studies that have examined the concurrent treatment of these behaviors. The current investigation reports on the emergence and treatment of dropping during the treatment of elopement.
