The Functional Role of Preschoolers' Verbalizations in the Generalization of Self-Instructional Training.

Guevremont, David D.; And Others

Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v21 n1 p45-55 Spr 1988

Four preschoolers (ages 4-5) received self-instructional training in overt and covert self-verbalizations. Treatment effects were evident in the training setting. Generalization of self-verbalizations to the classroom setting was related to changes in performance accuracy, on-task behavior, and efficiency in completing academic work. (Author/JW)
