It's possible that the increase in behavior is due to an extinction burst.

Maybe the client's disability is causing the behavior.

I think the behavior could be a symptom of the client's disability. Gotta consider that, right? I mean, it's not like they're just doing it for the fun of it.

Haha, I bet the staff just have no idea what they're doing. Classic case of B - lack of competence. They're probably running around like headless chickens, trying to stop the client from poking their eyes out.

Hmm, I'm going with D. The increase in behavior is probably just an extinction burst. You know, when you try to stop a habit and it gets worse before it gets better. Happened to me when I tried to quit biting my nails.

The obvious answer is C. There could be a biological or medical issue causing the client's behavior. I mean, who pushes their knuckles into their eyes for fun? Gotta look into that first.

I think the behavior analyst should have considered a medical variable.
