Falakfarsa, Galan; Brand, Denys; Bensemann, Joshua; Jones, Lea; Miguel, Caio F.; Heinicke, Megan R.; Mason, Makenna A. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Procedural fidelity is defined as the extent to which the independent variable is implemented as prescribed. Research using computerized tasks has shown that fidelity errors involving consequences for behavior can hinder skill acquisition. However, studies examining the effects of these errors once skills have been mastered are lacking. Thus, this…

Lillie, Madelynn A.; Tiger, Jeffrey H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
Previous researchers have taught sighted adults to match braille sample stimuli to print comparisons in a matching-to-sample (MTS) format and assessed the emergence of other braille repertoires, such as transcribing and reading braille following this training. Although participants learned to match to sample with braille, they displayed limited…

Fienup, Daniel M.; Brodsky, Julia – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2017
In this study, we manipulated mastery criterion form (rolling or block) and stringency (across 6 or 12 trials) and measured the emergence of derived relations. College students learned neuroanatomy equivalence classes and experienced one of two rolling mastery criteria (6 or 12 consecutive correct responses) or a block mastery criterion (12 trials…

Shapiro, Marnie; Kazemi, Ellie; Pogosjana, Meline; Rios, Denice; Mendoza, Melissa – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2016
We examined the effects of a self-instructional and feedback package on participants' implementation of a paired-stimulus preference assessment. Specifically, in Experiment 1, we used a multiple baseline design across participants to replicate and extend the results of Graff and Karsten (2012) by evaluating the effectiveness of their…

Zinn, Tracy E.; Newland, M. Christopher; Ritchie, Katie E. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2015
Because it employs an emergent-learning framework, equivalence-based instruction (EBI) is said to be highly efficient, but its presumed benefits must be compared quantitatively with alternative techniques. In a randomized controlled trial, 61 college students attempted to learn 32 pairs of proprietary and generic drug names using computer-based…
