Six English-speaking individuals (two male adults, three female adults, and one male student) participated in this study. Combined listener instruction consisted of auditory-visual matching for textual stimuli (i.e., “Point to [name of Chinese character]) and visual-visual matching for textual and picture stimuli (i.e., “Match [name of Chinese character]). Combined speaker instruction consisted of textual and tacting responding in Chinese. The researcher taught six stimulus sets (a total of 30 Chinese vocabularies), with each set randomly assigned to either the Listener-Speaker or Speaker-Listener instructional sequence. Results indicated that four participants required fewer trials to criterion with Speaker-Listener instruction; the other two participants’ learning trials between the two instructional methods were comparable. Five participants demonstrated greater emergent listener responses for stimulus sets taught with combined speaker instruction than emergent speaker responses for stimulus sets taught with combined listener instruction. One participant’s emergent speaker and listener responses were at a high level and not differentiated between the two instructional methods.","PeriodicalId":37052,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Behavior Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88807820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty-four participants, 12 younger adults (20–30 years old) and 12 older adults (67+ years old), participated in the study. In the conditional discrimination training, we gave the participants a break following 180 training trials, and the experimenter evaluated their progress. Participants with overall 50% correct responses or more after those 180 trials continued with the study as planned, with baseline conditional discrimination presented in accordance with the one-to-many (OTM) training structure and serialized training, followed by thinning of programmed consequences across training blocks before a test for the emergence of equivalence classes. If a participant was still training AB-conditional discriminations when the break was presented, with overall correct responses below 50% correct, the participant was exposed to a DOP to evaluate whether such a procedure may facilitate the establishment of the baseline conditional discrimination. Five participants in the older adult group received additional DOP training trials. The results show that two out of the five participants receiving DOP training established the AB baseline conditional discrimination. Neither of those responded in accordance with stimulus equivalence. Two out of the other seven participants in the older adults group and six out of 12 participants in the younger group formed equivalence classes.","PeriodicalId":37052,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Behavior Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139363547","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since Michael elaborated the concept of the conditioned motivating operation (CMO), three CMO subtypes (i.e., surrogate, reflexive, transitive) have been applied in the analysis of behaviour. The aims of the current review are (a) to identify the types of CMO used in mand training, (b) to identify the stimuli functioning as CMOs in the MO manipulation procedures, and (c) to analyse the effectiveness of MO manipulation procedures in mand training. The current systematic review identifies, between 1982 and 2022, 61 studies using MO manipulation procedures to teach new mand responses to children with autism spectrum disorder. All studies used transitive CMOs in mand training. Various stimuli functioned as CMOs in a range of procedures, the most common being hiding an item from view. The evaluation of effect sizes showed that mand training using CMOs had medium to strong effects in 66% of the participants in increasing their independent mand responses. Implications for practitioners and suggestions for future research on mand training using CMOs are discussed.","PeriodicalId":37052,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Behavior Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78917585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study is the first to compare immediately repeating a trial to not repeating that specific trial when baseline relations training errors occur. In this study, adults of typical development learned two different sets of two 4-member equivalence classes of abstract stimuli. A within-subjects design was used to compare the effects of immediately repeating or not repeating an incorrect trial. Results showed that equivalence classes were learned with similar accuracy and efficiency regardless of condition. However, maintenance of classes was significantly higher for participants in the repeating a trial condition, and participants strongly preferred this condition.

However, the region’s ABA community has grown exponentially over the last six years. This growth may be attributed to the work of families and professionals linked to the region’s autistic community. This progress has not been without challenges. Along the way, there have been numerous vocal opponents across various fields. Despite pushback, the headstrong ABA community has managed to: establish ABA professional organizations, hold ABA conferences, train various professionals in ABA, and pass laws surrounding the profession and its practice. Through efforts such as holding free community-based workshops, creating ABA-centric continuing education trainings for other helping professions, recruiting local media coverage, collaborating with other organizations, presenting multiple exemplars of case studies using ABA-based methods across disciplines, and lobbying the government for change, ABA is on its way to becoming a more available option for supporting those with autism in the area. This paper shares the trials and tribulations of the region, hoping that the experiences and actionable points here can help move similar nations towards ABA dissemination and professional establishment.","PeriodicalId":37052,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Behavior Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88467046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current study was the first to use compound stimuli as both samples and comparisons during training of conditional relations. We compared compound-to-compound stimuli MTS training with the more typical single-to-single stimuli training to establish two 4-member arbitrary stimulus classes with adults. A pretest-train-posttest between-groups experimental design was used. Compounds consisted of side-by-side pairs of individual (single) abstract symbols. A pretest and posttest consisting of MTS trials evaluating all single-to-single, single-to-compound, compound-to-single, and compound-to-compound relations were used to compare the effectiveness of the two training procedures. In addition, participants sorted cards depicting all single stimuli into piles both before and after MTS training. Results showed that stimulus classes were established with similar accuracy regardless of the training used. However, the compound-to-compound group participants required significantly fewer trials and training blocks to demonstrate class emergence than participants in the single-to-single group. In addition, the compound-to-compound group participants emitted significantly fewer errors during MTS training. We discuss how these results may inform use of stimulus equivalence procedures in mainstream settings (e.g., teaching academic content).","PeriodicalId":37052,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Behavior Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76738563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
