Time-Delay Discrimination Training: Replication with Different Stimuli and Different Populations.

Smeets, Paul M.; And Others

Research in Developmental Disabilities, v11 n2 p217-40 1990

Two time-delay conditions for teaching complex visual discriminations to 14 normal preschoolers, 12 with mild mental retardation, and 11 with moderate mental retardation were compared. Results indicated that for all populations and stimuli, time delay of multiple dynamic distinctive-feature prompts produced learning, while time delay of the single static nondistinctive-feature prompt almost never did.
