Transfer of Training in Behavior Modification Programs: An Evaluative Review

Abstract: A selective review of behavior modification programs, which emphasized procedures for programming transfer of training and response maintenance, was undertaken. The principle focus was to evaluate the effectiveness of generalization techniques utilized with exceptional children and to enumerate several points for maintaining performance in the classroom. The role of self-management skills was also discussed, but it was conlcuded that logistical constraints and motivational impediments present in most special e… Show more

“…A final area which merits future study is that of evaluating the efficacy of self-reinforcement contingencies on facilitating response maintenance and transfer of training. This is a critical problem area in behaviour modification programmes which has been identified by other writers (Keeley, Shemberg & Carbonell, 1976;Wehman, Abramson & Norman, 1977). more sophisticated examination of self-management skills with the mentally handicapped.…”

The predominant conclusion of these writers is that generalization of training cannot be assumed to occur.…”
