Teaching Mothers to Imitate Their Handicapped Children: Effects on Maternal Mands.
Brown-Gorton, Robin; Wolery, Mark
Journal of Special Education, v22 n1 p97-107 Spr 1988
Three mothers of handicapped children were taught to imitate their child's behavior; subsequently the number of mands displayed by the mothers during play sessions were measured. Results showed increases in the percentage of sample intervals during which mothers imitated their children and showed that, as imitations increased, mands decreased. (Author/JDD)
