  • Title: Effects of response and trial repetition on sight-word training for students with learning disabilities.
    Author: Belfiore PJ, Skinner CH, Ferkis MA.
    Journal: J Appl Behav Anal; 1995; 28(3):347-8. PubMed ID: 7592153.
    Abstract:
    Alternating treatments designs were used to compare the effects of trial repetition (one response within five trials per word) versus response repetition (five response repetitions within one trial per word) on sight-word acquisition for 3 elementary students diagnosed with specific learning disabilities in reading. Although both interventions occasioned the same number of accurate responses per word during training, the trial-repetition condition, which involved complete antecedent-response-feedback sequences, resulted in more words mastered for all 3 students.
