Epps, Susan; And Others
Research in Developmental Disabilities, v11 n1 p37-66 1990
The study evaluated two simulation methods (either on-self or using a doll) of general case instruction in teaching menstrual care to four severely/profoundly retarded adolescents and women. Results indicated limited generalization after training using a doll, high levels of generalized responding following on-self instruction, but decreased effect over time. (Author/DB)
