  • Title: The effects of a self-instructional package on overactive preschool boys.
    Author: Bornstein PH, Quevillon RP.
    Journal: J Appl Behav Anal; 1976; 9(2):179-88. PubMed ID: 956074.
    Abstract:
    The effects of a self-instructional package on three overactive preschool boys were investigated using a multiple-baseline design across subjects. Behavioral observations of the three target subjects indicated transfer of training effects from the experimental tasks to the classroom. On-task behaviors increased dramatically concomitant with the introduction of the self-instructional package, and treatment gains were maintained 22.5 weeks after baseline was initiated. In addition, the use of an observer-expectancy control condition gave further credibility to the demonstration of a cusal relationship.
