Diorio, Mark S.; Konarski, Edward A., Jr.
American Journal of Mental Deficiency, v89 n3 p307-09 Nov 1984
Of the three profoundly retarded adults trained in this study, two attained criterion for independent undressing. No residents reached criterion on dressing despite as much as 108.2 hours of training. Results contrasted with those of Azrin et al whose subjects reached criterion on all skills in an average of 12 hours. (Author/CL)
