Progressive Delay and Unlimited Delay of Prompts in Forward Chaining and Whole Task Training Strategies.
Walls, Richard T.; And Others
Education and Training of the Mentally Retarded, v19 n4 p276-84 Dec 1984
Nineteen vocational rehabilitation clients were trained to assemble 12-part apparatuses via a forward chaining or whole task training sequence with a one-second progressive or an unlimited prompt delay. Less training time but more prompts were required in whole task than in forward chaining conditions. Whole-task unlimited delay yielded most errors. (Author/CL)
