If the behavior increased, an extinction burst could explain that. But I'm with Gerald - there might be a biological factor at play here.

Haha, an 'extinction burst'? Sounds like something out of a sci-fi movie. Maybe the analysts should've considered the client's disability first.

I think the staff may not have been trained well enough on the intervention procedures. Could be a competency issue.

Hmm, maybe the client has an underlying medical condition that's causing the behavior. Pushing knuckles into eyes doesn't sound like normal behavior.
