Hranchuk, Kieva; Douglas Greer, R.; Longano, Jennifer – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
Prior research found that without the naming cusp, children did not learn from instructional demonstrations presented before learn units (IDLUs) (i.e., modeling an expected response twice for a learner prior to delivering an instructional antecedent), however, following the establishment of naming, they could. The present study was designed to…

Tullis, Christopher A.; Marya, Videsha; Alice Shillingsburg, M. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
Instructive feedback (IF) is a procedure in which secondary targets are presented to a learner during instruction for primary skills. Previous research has demonstrated that students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may acquire at least a portion of skills presented via IF. Although it is a promising instructional methodology for learners with…

Akers, Jessica S.; Retzlaff, Billie J.; Fisher, Wayne W.; Greer, Brian D.; Kaminski, Ami J.; DeSouza, Andresa A. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
Most verbal behavior curricula for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) focus on teaching multiple mands during the early stages of training (e.g., picture exchange communication system; Bondy & Frost, 1994). However, few, if any, of those curricula train children with ASD to differentially mand only for reinforcers that are reasonable…

Solares, Leslie; Fryling, Mitch J. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
A large amount of learning occurs through the observation of stimulus-stimulus relations. One procedure that involves this sort of learning is the stimulus-pairing observation procedure (SPOP). The current study involves a systematic replication of Byrne, Rehfeldt, and Aguirre (2014). Tests for the emergence of tact and listener relations were…

Axe, Judah B.; Phelan, Stephanie H.; Irwin, Caitlin L. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
We reviewed 12 studies in which the researcher taught problem-solving strategies, such as self-questioning and visual imagining, to children and adolescents with and without disabilities to facilitate the learning of math, spelling, play/social, and communication skills. We analyzed these studies in terms of types of problem-solving strategies,…

Dal Ben, Rodrigo; Goyos, Celso – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
The form of a verbal response allows for reinforcement mediation and language transmission across cultures. Reinforcement, in turn, plays a decisive role in learning verbal forms. The present work addresses methodological limitations of previous studies, providing further evidence of the role of automatic reinforcement in achieving parity with…

Barry, Lorna; Holloway, Jennifer; Gunning, Ciara – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
Communication deficits in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) can manifest in a myriad of lifelong social and educational challenges. Many children with ASD fail to learn vocal verbal behavior and may require intensive individualized intervention to learn early verbal operants. The current research aimed to evaluate the effects of a…

Aguirre, Angelica A.; LeBlanc, Linda A.; Reavis, Andrea; Shillingsburg, Alice M.; Delfs, Caitlin H.; Miltenberger, Catherine A.; Symer, Kaneen B. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2019
Children with autism are often taught auditory conditional discriminations in the form of personal information questions that might prove useful in conversation (e.g., "What is your favorite food?" "Pizza" and "What is your favorite color?" "Purple"). In these questions, the auditory stimuli presented as…

Hawkins, Emma; Gautreaux, Grant; Chiesa, Mecca – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2018
Conceptually, the use of the technical term "naming" appears to be a broad term that describes several subtypes of emergent verbal behavior. Miguel ("The Analysis of Verbal Behavior," 32, 125-138, Miguel, 2016) introduces the concept of subtypes of naming, specifically common bidirectional naming and intraverbal bidirectional…

Wiskow, Katie M.; Matter, Ashley L.; Donaldson, Jeanne M. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2018
A lag schedule of reinforcement is one way to increase response variability; however, previous research has been mixed with regard to the necessary parameters to increase variability. For some individuals, low schedule requirements (e.g., Lag 1) are sufficient to increase variability. For other individuals, higher lag schedules (e.g., Lag 3) or a…

Kodak, Tiffany; Bergmann, Samantha; LeBlanc, Brittany; Harman, Michael J.; Ayazi, Maryam – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2018
Although Skinner (1957) provided a behavioral account of verbal thinking, additional research is needed to evaluate stimuli that may influence covert verbal behavior that occurs between the onset of a verbal stimulus and the emission of a response during an episode of verbal thinking. The present investigation examined the effects of auditory…

Cao, Yu; Greer, R. Douglas – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2018
The onset of the verbal behavior developmental cusp of bidirectional naming (BiN) in a second language makes it possible for monolingual English-speaking children to learn names of things in a second language incidentally. We conducted 2 experiments to identify why monolingual English-speaking children cannot demonstrate BiN in another language…

Neuman, Paul – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2018
The language of behavior analysis is precise in the sense that it focuses attention on functional relations between behavior and the environment that are extended in time. However, to non-behavior analysts, behavior-analytic terms and explanations are difficult to understand and awkward sounding. Evidence suggests that this has had deleterious…

Ben, Rodrigo Dal; Goyos, Celso – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2017
"The Analysis of Verbal Behavior" ("TAVB") is the only journal focused on theoretical and empirical research in verbal behavior. An assessment of authorship trends can provide a critical perspective on practices in verbal behavior analysis (e.g., participation by non-US institutions, contributions by female authors). The…

Tullis, Christopher A.; Frampton, Sarah E.; Delfs, Caitlin H.; Shillingsburg, M. Alice – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2017
Instructive feedback (IF) is a procedure in which extra information is presented to a participant during the consequence portion of instruction for other skills. Previous research has demonstrated that participants with intellectual disabilities may acquire a portion of non-targeted skills (secondary targets) without explicit instruction when…
