Abstract
We examined the effects of contingency management on participation in and maintenance of an education program by new members of a student ho using cooperative. With credit and fine contingencies in place, the pe rcentage of participants completing study guides was five times higher than without the contingencies. Members continued to implement the pr ogram for 9 years without researcher involvement.
