Effects of Video Games as Reinforcers for Computerized Addition Performance.
Axelrod, Saul; And Others
Journal of Special Education Technology, v9 n1 p1-8 Fall 1987
Four 2nd-grade students completed addition problems on a computer, using video games as reinforcers. Two variable ratio schedules of reinforcement failed to increase student accuracy or the rate of correct responses. In a no-games reinforcement condition, students had more opportunities to respond and had a greater number of correct answers. (Author/JDD)
