Sherburne, Sara; And Others
Exceptional Children, v55 n2 p166-72 Oct 1988
Two procedures were compared for reducing violent or aggressive theme play of six preschool children with behavior disorders and five normally developing peers. Contingency statements followed by a modified time-out produced consistently lower rates of violent theme play than did verbal prompts to engage in more appropriate types of play. (Author/JDD)
