Peer reviewedGoldstein, Howard; Mousetis, Lori – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1989
The effects of expressive modeling experiences on the observational learning of generative language by children with severe mental retardation was investigated. All six children (aged six-nine) demonstrated observational learning of responses modeled by their peers. Organizing the modeling experiences according to matrix-training principles…

Peer reviewedGoldstein, Howard; Hockenberger, Elaine Hontz – Research in Developmental Disabilities, 1991
This review identifies five themes of child language intervention: (1) development of augmentative and alternative communication systems; (2) provision of language stimulation to take advantage of observational learning; (3) teaching of various language functions; (4) teaching of language as a means of environmental and self-control; and (5) study…

Peer reviewedGoldstein, Howard; Brown, William H. – Education and Treatment of Children, 1989
Two experiments investigated the effects of peer modeling on the acquisition of receptive and expressive language responses. Experiment 1 studied lexical learning among five children who were mildly/moderately developmentally disabled. Experiment 2 investigated the observational learning of receptive and expressive language responses by two…

Peer reviewedEzell, Helen K.; Goldstein, Howard – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1991
An observational learning paradigm was used to instruct five elementary students with mild or moderate mental retardation to monitor their comprehension of incomplete instructions. Although all subjects eventually demonstrated observational learning, performance varied depending on the type of instruction inadequacy. During posttesting all…
