Generalization Effects of Newly Conditioned Reinforcers.

Dorow, Laura G.

Education and Training of the Mentally Retarded, v15 n1 p8-14 Feb 1980

A severely disabled and retarded 15-year-old girl was examined for: effect of music and approval as reinforcers for following a command; effect of a food-pairing procedure on an approval alone condition, an approval plus music condition, and an ignore condition; durability of newly conditioned reinforcers; and strength of the new reinforcers as contingencies for following a second command.
