Levingston, Heather B.; Neef, Nancy A.; Cihon, Traci M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2009
We examined the effects of teaching overt precurrent behaviors on the current operant of solving multiplication and division word problems. Two students were taught four precurrent behaviors (identification of label, operation, larger numbers, and smaller numbers) in a different order, in the context of a multiple baseline design. After meeting…

Pipkin, Claire St. Peter; Vollmer, Timothy R.; Sloman, Kimberly N. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2010
Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) is used frequently as a treatment for problem behavior. Previous studies on treatment integrity failures during DRA suggest that the intervention is robust, but research has not yet investigated the effects of different types of integrity failures. We examined the effects of two types of…

Freeland, Jennifer T.; Noell, George H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1999
This study examined the effect of delayed reinforcement on mathematics performance by four fourth graders and the effect of programming stimuli common to reinforcement conditions on the maintenance of their performance. Participants exhibited similar levels of responding during intermittent and continuous reinforcement. Responding continued for a…
