Trained, Generalized, and Collateral Behavior Changes of Preschool Children Receiving Gross-Motor Skills Training.

Kirby, Kimberly C.; Holborn, Stephen W.

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v19 n3 p283-88 Fall 1986

Results indicated that the program improved the 10 targeted gross-motor skills and that improvements sometimes generalized to other settings. The program did not produce changes in fine-motor skills or social behaviors. Implications are discussed. (Author)
