Using Constant Time Delay to Teach Word Definitions.
Schuster, John W.; And Others
Journal of Special Education, v24 n3 p306-18 Fall 1990
A 5-second constant time delay procedure was used to teach 10 word definitions to 3 fifth grade students with mild learning handicaps. All students learned the definitions in 8 to 9 sessions with students maintaining correct responding at 6, 10, and 14 weeks after training. Generalization was also observed. (Author/DB)
