Abstract

The current study sought to evaluate the efficacy of a stimulus equivalence training procedure in establishing auditory-tactile-visual stimulus classes with 2 children with autism and developmental delays. Participants were exposed to vocal-tactile (A-B) and tactile-picture (B-C) conditional discrimination training and were tested for the emergence of vocal-picture (A-C) and picture-vocal (C-A) responses. The results demonstrated that, following training, both participants responded successfully on both the training stimulus arrangements and the test probes that were never trained, illustrating emergence of cross-modal transitive and equivalence relations.

在自闭症和发育迟缓儿童中建立听觉-触觉-视觉等效班。

本研究旨在评估刺激等效训练程序对2名自闭症发育迟缓儿童建立听觉-触觉-视觉刺激班的效果。参与者接受了声音-触觉(A-B)和触觉-图像(B-C)条件辨别训练，并测试了声音-图像(A-C)和图像-声音(C-A)反应的出现情况。结果表明，在训练后，两名被试对训练刺激安排和未训练的测试探针都有成功的反应，说明出现了跨模态传递和等效关系。

期刊介绍： The Analysis of Verbal Behavior (TAVB) is an official publication of the Association for Behavior Analysis International. The Mission of the journal is to support the dissemination of innovative empirical research, theoretical conceptualizations, and real-world applications of the behavioral science of language. The journal embraces diverse perspectives of human language, its conceptual underpinnings, and the utility such diversity affords. TAVB values contributions that represent the scope of field and breadth of populations behavior analysts serve, and Is the premier publication outlet that fosters increased dialogue between scientists and scientist-practitioners. Articles addressing the following topics are encouraged: language acquisition, verbal operants, relational frames, naming, rule-governed behavior, epistemology, language assessment and training, bilingualism, verbal behavior of nonhumans, research methodology, or any other topic that addresses the analysis of language from a behavior analytic perspective.
