Gross, Thomas J.; Duhon, Gary J.; Shutte, Greg; Rowland, Julie E. – Contemporary School Psychology, 2016
Math fact fluency is critical for understanding complex mathematics. Explicit timing interventions have shown promise for improving math fluency, and they may benefit from being paired with group-oriented contingencies. Further, investigations of independent and dependent group-oriented contingencies would help to identify their relative…
