Why Classroom Token Economies Fail
Drabman, Ronald S.; Tucker, Richard D.
Journal of School Psychology, 12, 3, 178-188, F 74
The reasons for clinical failures of classroom token economies are divided into three groups: (1) Problems associated with the token program itself, (2) Problems associated with the teacher, and (3) Problems associated with the specific population on which the classroom token economy is used. Each of these problem areas is discussed. (Author)
