Jt. Freeland, Maintaining accurate math responses in elementary school students: The effects of delayed intermittent reinforcement rnd programming common stimuli, J APPL BE A, 32(2), 1999, pp. 211-215
This study examined the effect of delayed reinforcement on digits completed
by elementary school children and the effect of programming stimuli common
to reinforcement conditions on the maintenance of their performance. Parti
cipants exhibited similar levels of responding during intermittent and cont
inuous reinforcement. Responding continued for a number of sessions at simi
lar levels during a maintenance phase that included stimuli present during
delayed reinforcement.
