Eliminating Selective Stimulus Control: A Comparison of Two Procedures for Teaching Mentally Retarded Children to Respond to Compound Stimuli.
Allen, Keith D.; Fuqua, R. Wayne
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v39 n1 p55-71 Feb 1985
Evaluates the efficacy of two training procedures for eliminating selective stimulus control observed with three trainable mentally retarded children. In another experiment, improvements in stimulus control were not a function of varying degrees of difficulty between stimulus sets or of a prior history of discrimination training with the less effective procedure.
