The Effects of Number of Stimuli on Rate of Discrimination Learning in Autistic Children.
PDF pending restoration PDF pending restoration
Freeman, B. J.; And Others – 1977
Examined were the effects of number of stimuli and of two different stimulus modalities on the discrimination learning of 17 autistic children (mean age 57 months). Discrimination training was carried out in three groups with varied light and sound stimuli. Among findings was that mental age was negatively correlated with trials to criterion and…

Farley, Frank H.; Manske, Mary E. – 1970
Heart rate change was used as the index of the orienting response (OR) of 102 kindergarten children. Heart rate change was measured by recording heart rate upon the presentation of tones. 15 similar tones followed by a different, 16th tone, were used. From this data the children were divided into high, medium, or low orientors. Following the…

Gottselig, Julie Marie; Brandeis, Daniel; Hofer-Tinguely, Gilberte; Borbely, Alexander A.; Achermann, Peter – Learning & Memory, 2004
We investigated learning-related changes in amplitude, scalp topography, and source localization of the mismatch negativity (MMN), a neurophysiological response correlated with auditory discrimination ability. Participants (n = 32) underwent two EEG recordings while they watched silent films and ignored auditory stimuli. Stimuli were a standard…

Waber, Deborah P.; Weiler, Michael D.; Wolff, Peter H.; Bellinger, David; Marcus, David J.; Ariel, Raya; Forebes, Peter; Wypig, David – Child Development, 2001
Compared the processing of rapid auditory stimuli on two-tone auditory discrimination tasks by 7- to 11-year-olds with learning impairments (LI) and those without learning impairments (non-LI). Found that LI children committed more errors, but the effects of timing were comparable. Obtained same results with a sample of good and poor readers. Task…
