Blount, H. Parker; Delamontagne, Robert P. – Training in Business and Industry, 1974

Peer reviewedWacker, David P.; And Others – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1988

Almost all subjects were able to generalize the use of verbal labels and key-entry skills across tasks and settings. (Author/JDD)
