S+ versus S- Fading in Prompting Procedures with Autistic Children.

Schreibman, Laura; Charlop, Marjorie H.

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v31 n3 p508-20 Jun 1981

Results indicated that, for all but one of eight autistic children, visual discriminations were acquired significantly faster, with fewer errors, when the S+ stimulus was faded first. These findings are related to the literature on the effects of stimulus novelty on selection and learning. (Author/RH)
