Matter, Ashley L.; Wiskow, Katie M.; Donaldson, Jeanne M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Using instructional strategies based on derived relational responding (DRR) to teach foreign-language targets may result in emergent, untrained foreign-language relations. One benefit of using DRR instructional strategies is the efficiency with which an individual acquires additional stimulus relations as a result of emergent responding following…

Pachis, Jacqueline A.; Zonneveld, Kimberley L. M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
The Internet and information and communications technologies (ICTs) have been found to produce meaningful social interactions and greater social support among older adults (White et al., [White, H., 2002]). Despite these benefits, the Internet and ICTs are not widely used among the older-adult population (Cresci, Yarandi, & Morrell, [Cresci,…

Haq, Shaji S.; Kodak, Tiffany; Kurtz-Nelson, Evangeline; Porritt, Marilynn; Rush, Kristin; Cariveau, Tom – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2015
We replicated and extended the findings of Haq and Kodak (2015) by evaluating the efficiency of massed and distributed practice for teaching tacts and textual and intraverbal behavior to 3 children with autism. Massed practice included all practice opportunities conducted on 1 day during each week, and distributed practice included practice…

Carroll, Regina A.; Joachim, Brad T.; St. Peter, Claire C.; Robinson, Nicole – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2015
Previous research supports the use of a variety of error-correction procedures to facilitate skill acquisition during discrete-trial instruction. We used an adapted alternating treatments design to compare the effects of 4 commonly used error-correction procedures on skill acquisition for 2 children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder…

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…

McDonnell, John; Ferguson, Brad – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1989
Four students, aged 15-19, with moderate mental retardation learned to cash checks and use an automatic teller through either a decreasing prompt hierarchy or time-delay procedure. Both strategies led to acquisition of target tasks and were equally effective in producing performance maintenance; however, the decreasing prompt hierarchy was more…
