A Comparison of Prompting by Exclusion and Delayed Prompting during Conditional Discrimination Training
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Cariveau, Tom; Ellington, Paige; Brown, Alexandria; Platt, Delanie F. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2023
Previous research on training auditory-visual conditional discriminations (AVCDs) have compared several prompt types including gestural, positional, and identity-matching prompts. Other prompting procedures, such as those that involve the manipulation of the comparison array, have received less attention in the applied literature. For example, the…

Marris, Jessica E.; Perfors, Andrew; Mitchell, David; Wang, Wayland; McCusker, Mark W.; Lovell, Timothy John Haynes; Gibson, Robert N.; Gaillard, Frank; Howe, Piers D. L. – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Recent work has shown that perceptual training can be used to improve the performance of novices in real-world visual classification tasks with medical images, but it is unclear which perceptual training methods are the most effective, especially for difficult medical image discrimination tasks. We investigated several different perceptual…

Comparison of Mastery Criteria Applied to Individual Targets and Stimulus Sets on Acquisition of Tacts, Intraverbals, and Listener Responses
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Cordeiro, Maria Clara; Kodak, Tiffany; Reidy, Jessi; Stoppleworth, Abigail; Zelinski, Karly; Jainga, Andrea – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Mastery criteria can be applied to individual targets or stimuli organized into sets. Wong et al. (2021) and Wong and Fienup (2022) found that participants who received special education services learned sight words more rapidly when an individual target mastery criterion was applied. The current study replicated and extended these findings across…

Xiaoyun Shangguan; Jianfen Wu; Yunpeng Wu; Chen Chen – Early Education and Development, 2024
"Research Findings:" Sustained attention is a fundamental cognitive function for young children's development. We investigated the effects of school-based audiovisual game training with parental involvement on sustained attention (SA) in 5-6-year-old Chinese children. Totally 75 children and their parents participated and were assigned…

Replication of a Skills Assessment for Auditory-Visual Conditional Discrimination Training
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Kodak, Tiffany; Bergmann, Samantha; Cordeiro, Maria Clara; Bamond, Meredith; Isenhower, Robert W.; Fiske, Kate E. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Auditory-visual conditional discrimination training (e.g., receptive identification training, listener responses; AVCD) is ubiquitous in early intervention and special education programs. Nevertheless, some learners with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) do not appear to benefit from this training despite use of empirically validated treatments. To…

The Contribution of Visual Articulatory Gestures and Orthography to Speech Processing: Evidence from Novel Word Learning
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Pattamadilok, Chotiga; Welby, Pauline; Tyler, Michael D. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2022
Auditory speech appears to be linked to visual articulatory gestures and orthography through different mechanisms. Yet, both types of visual information have a strong influence on speech processing. The present study directly compared their contributions to speech processing using a novel word learning paradigm. Native speakers of French, who were…
