Delayed Identity Matching to Complex Samples: Teaching Students with Mental Retardation Spelling and the Prerequisites for Equivalence Classes.

Stromer, Robert; Mackay, Harry A.

Research in Developmental Disabilities, v14 n1 p19-38 Jan-Feb 1993

Two students with moderate to severe mental retardation learned delayed matching to sample in which some of the trials involved complex sample stimuli, each consisting of a picture and a printed word. Matching to either the preceding picture or printed word sample was reinforced. Evidence for the formation of equivalence classes was observed. (Author/DB)
