Teaching mands by manipulating conditioned establishing operations.
Skinner's (1957) analysis of verbal behavior suggests the functional independence of the verbal operants. However, only a few empirical studies have directly examined the nature of these operants, and their independence. The present study evaluated whether teaching topographies as tacts would lead to their emission as mands. The results indicated that manding only occurred reliably after direct...
متن کاملMands for information generalize across establishing operations.
The current study extends the literature on teaching mands for information by assessing whether mands generalize across different establishing operations (EOs). Three children with autism were taught to perform multiple behavior chains, 3 of which included a common response (e.g., "Where is the spoon?") used for different purposes. An interrupted-behavior-chain procedure was used to contrive th...
متن کاملIssues of Participant Absorptive Capacity in Establishing Virtual Enterprise Operations
The author is involved in a multi-year program to establish a number of largescale SME collaboration projects. It was anticipated that some web-based tools used previously could be adapted, but limits in the participant firm capabilities and the emergence of a different business model led to a change in approach. In this paper an adaptation of the notion of absorptive capacity where both a firm...
متن کاملThe effects of establishing operations on preference assessment outcomes.
Preference assessments were conducted for 4 individuals with developmental disabilities across conditions of (a) control, allowing equal access to all stimuli prior to the preference assessment; (b) deprivation, allowing no access to one stimulus for 48 hr prior to the assessment; and (c) satiation, allowing free access to one stimulus for 10 min immediately prior to the assessment. Deprivation...
متن کاملContriving establishing operations to teach mands for information.
Many children with autism cannot effectively ask wh- questions to mand for information, even though they may have extensive tact, intraverbal, and receptive language skills. Wh- questions are typically mands because they occur under the control of establishing operations (EOs) and result in specific reinforcement. The current study first investigated a procedure to teach the mand "where?" to ch...
