Applying Therbligs to Task Analytic Instruction: A Technology to Pursue?
Browder, Diane M.; And Others
Education and Training in Mental Retardation, v28 n3 p242-51 Sep 1993

Both strategies led to the acquisition of the target tasks, but the therblig-based strategy was more efficient and efficacious. (Author/JDD)
