Abstract

In synchronous-reinforcement schedules, the duration of behavior directly controls the duration of reinforcement on a moment-to-moment basis. We replicated and extended Diaz de Villegas et al. (2020) by comparing the effects of synchronous reinforcement with two accumulated-reinforcement schedules for increasing on-task behavior for seven preschoolers. One accumulated schedule was the same as the one used in Diaz de Villegas et al. and did not include tokens, whereas the other accumulated schedule included the delivery of tokens within session. Furthermore, we assessed preference for the three reinforcement schedules. The results showed that synchronous reinforcement was effective for increasing on-task behavior for all seven participants. Furthermore, it was most effective for increasing on-task behavior for three out of seven participants and preferred by all participants. For some participants, other schedules were also similarly effective. The results are discussed with respect to implications for application.

比较同步强化和累积强化对增加学龄前儿童完成任务行为的作用。
在同步强化计划中,行为的持续时间直接控制着强化的持续时间。我们复制并扩展了 Diaz de Villegas 等人(2020 年)的研究,比较了同步强化与两种累积强化计划对增加七名学龄前儿童任务行为的效果。其中一个累积强化计划与 Diaz de Villegas 等人的研究相同,不包括代币,而另一个累积强化计划则包括在会话期间发放代币。此外,我们还评估了对三种强化计划的偏好。结果显示,对所有七名参与者来说,同步强化都能有效提高任务行为。而且,在七名参与者中,有三名参与者对同步强化最有效,所有参与者都喜欢同步强化。对于某些参与者来说,其他强化方式也同样有效。本文就结果的应用意义进行了讨论。
