An Alternative Explanation for Premack & Premack
When interpreting the results of experiments that test the cognitive abilities of infants, we must be careful not to attribute to them the cognitive abilities of adults. By merely mapping adult capabilities onto infants, we may provide explanations that, while in line with the understanding of those abilities in adults, do not properly describe the actual cognitive processes that are taking pla...
متن کاملDeprivation and Reinforcement in Applied Settings: a Preliminary Analysis Edward
First-grade children engaged in seatwork behaviors under reinforcement schedules established according to the Premack Principle and the Response Deprivation Hypothesis. Across two experiments, schedules were presented to the children in a counterbalanced fashion which fulfilled the conditions of one, both, or neither of the hypotheses. Duration of on-task math and coloring in Experiment 1 and o...
متن کاملTeaching 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...
