Answer to Question 1

A time-out room is any confined space outside of the instructional setting. An advantage of a time-out room is that it can be a place of safety for the individual or others. In a time-out room the opportunity to acquire reinforcement is reduced substantially. If the room is properly set up the behavior that led to time-out should rapidly decrease thus decreasing the number of occasions in which time-out will be used. However, the disadvantages include the necessity to escort the individual to the time-out room. In addition, the individual is precluded from receiving any benefits of remaining in the instructional setting
