Abstract
The generality of the findings reported by DeLeon, Iwata, and Roscoe (1997) was examined by conducting two stimulus-choice preference assessments, the second of which evaluated low-ranked items from the initial assessment. Re sults for the 2 participants suggested that supplementary assessments of lo w-ranked items may be useful for identifying a wider variety of reinforcing stimuli.
