Wills, Howard P.; Iwaszuk, Wendy M.; Kamps, Debra; Shumate, Emily – Education and Treatment of Children, 2014
This study explored the effects of a group-contingency intervention on student behavior across academic instructional periods. Research suggests group contingencies are evidence-based practices, yet calls for investigation to determine the best conditions and groups suited for this type of intervention. CW-FIT (Class-Wide Function-related…
