Williams, J. Mark G.; Barnhofer, Thorsten; Crane, Catherine; Herman, Dirk; Raes, Filip; Watkins, Ed; Dalgleish, Tim – Psychological Bulletin, 2007
The authors review research showing that when recalling autobiographical events, many emotionally disturbed patients summarize categories of events rather than retrieving a single episode. The mechanisms underlying such overgeneral memory are examined, with a focus on M. A. Conway and C. W. Pleydell-Pearce's (2000) hierarchical search model of…

Shepard, Roger N. – Science, 1987
Describes the establishment of a psychological space for any set of stimuli by determining metric distances between the stimuli with the probability that a response learned for a stimulus will generalize to the other. (Author/TW)

Landa, Katrina G. – ProQuest LLC, 2009
This study investigated the effects of repeated readings on the reading abilities of 4, third-, fourth-, and fifth-grade English language learners (ELLs) with specific learning disabilities (SLD). A multiple baseline probe design across subjects was used to explore the effects of repeated readings on four dependent variables: reading fluency…

Campbell, Todd C. – 1994
Correlation is one of the most widely used analytic procedures in the behavioral sciences. The bivariate correlation is implicit in all classical analyses ranging from t-tests to canonical correlation analysis. The most common correlation coefficient used in statistics is the Pearson product-moment coefficient of correlation, which is represented…

Wilson, Tina; Fredericks, Bud – Teaching Research, 1982
Two pilot efforts were undertaken to teach moderately and severely handicapped children music. In the first, moderately and severely handicapped children were found capable of making gains in rhythm, melody, and keyboard after 3 months of weekly half hour group music instruction sessions and three weekly half hour practice sessions. Ss did not…

Cornelius, Edwin T., III; And Others – Personnel Psychology, 1984
Compares a successful job classification procedure used to make use of validity generalization findings in new settings with a much simpler holistic judgement approach for accomplishing the same purpose. Results showed that the latter approach was just as effective, but was much less time consuming and costly. (LLL)

Davies, Roger R.; Rogers, Erna S. – Mental Retardation, 1985
The article reviews social skills interventions that have been attempted with mentally retarded persons beginning with the less complex skills and moving to multifaceted ones. Summary tables are presented which list the skill(s) taught, the instructional methods used, the effectiveness of the intervention and the generalization effects for 22…

Barnes, Laura L. B.; Harp, Diane; Jung, Woo Sik – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2002
Conducted a reliability generalization study for the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (C. Spielberger, 1983) by reviewing and classifying 816 research articles. Average reliability coefficients were acceptable for both internal consistency and test-retest reliability, but variation was present among the estimates. Other differences are discussed.…

Staddon, J. E. R.; Reid, Alliston K. – Psychological Review, 1990
R. N. Shepard (1987) has proposed a universal exponential law of stimulus generalization, yet experimental data are often Gaussian in form. Theories have been proposed to reconcile the discrepancy, but as proposed here, a simple discrete diffusion process may underlie both types of gradient. (SLD)

Bauer, Patricia J.; Dow, Gina Annunziato – Developmental Psychology, 1994
In three experiments, infants enacted event sequences and one week later reenacted the sequences while using props that had replaced some of the props used in the first sequences or after selecting props functionally equivalent to the props used in the first sequences. These results demonstrated infants' spontaneous generalization and their…

We examined 9-month data from the 14-month NIMH Multimodal Treatment Study of Children with ADHD (the MTA) as a further check on the relative effect of medication (MedMgt) and behavioral treatment (Beh) for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) while Beh was still being delivered at greater intensity than at 14-month endpoint, and…

Rehfeldt, Ruth Anne; Root, Shannon – Psychological Record, 2004
The purpose of this experiment was to investigate the generalization and long-term retention of equivalence relations in individuals with mental retardation. To date, the generalization of equivalence relations to a range of novel stimuli has only been demonstrated among verbally competent adults. The responding of many individuals with mental…
