The Effects of Reward on Tutor's Behaviors in a Cross-Age Tutoring Context.

Szynal-Brown, Carol; Morgan, Ronald R.

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v36 n2 p196-208 Oct 1983

Investigated 96 third-grade boys' and girls' tutoring of 96 first-grade boys and girls in three reward conditions: performance contingent, noncontingent reward, and no reward. Findings indicated that neither the tutor's teaching style nor the tutee's posttest performance was adversely affected by the reward. (Author/CI)
