  • Title: A comparison of verbal and tangible stimulus preference assessments.
    Author: Cohen-Almeida D, Graff RB, Ahearn WH.
    Journal: J Appl Behav Anal; 2000; 33(3):329-34. PubMed ID: 11051576.
    Abstract:
    Tangible preference assessments were compared with verbal preference assessments for 6 individuals with mental retardation, behavior disorders, or both. In the tangible assessment, items were placed in front of the participant. In the verbal assessment, participants were asked, "Do you want X or Y?" and the items were not present. The two assessments yielded similar high-preference items for 4 of the 6 participants. The verbal assessment was typically completed in less time than the tangible assessment.
