Effectiveness of Delayed Feedback on the Accuracy of Teaching Communicative Gestures to Individuals with Severe Mental Retardation.
Duker, Pieter C.; And Others
Research in Developmental Disabilities, v16 n6 p479-88 Nov-Dec 1995
Four trainers taught communicative gestures to four individuals with severe mental retardation during one-to-one sessions. Preceding each training session, verbal feedback was given with regard to the trainer's performance during the previous session. Delayed feedback was found to result in increased accuracy of training. (Author/JDD)
