Comparison of Constant Time Delay and the System of Least Prompts in Teaching Sight Word Reading to Students with Moderate Retardation.
Gast, David L.; And Others
Education and Training in Mental Retardation, v23 n2 p117-28 Jun 1988
Four moderately mentally retarded students, aged 8-13, were taught to read food words found in grocery stores, using constant time delay or system of least prompts procedures. Both strategies produced criterion-level performance in training and other settings, but the constant time delay procedure was more efficient. (Author/JDD)
