Increasing Appropriate Classroom Behaviour and Academic Performance by Reinforcing Correct Work Alone
Hundert, Joel; And Others
Psychology in the Schools, 13, 2, 194-200, Apr 76
The present study examined indirect effects of modifying appropriate classroom behavior by itself and academic performance by itself. Results show reinforcing appropriate behavior increased that behavior but produced little improvement in arithmetic performance. However, reinforcing arithmetic performance increased correct work and resulted in a high rate of appropriate behavior as well. (Author)
