Yuan, Chengan; Deng, Xiaolei; Zhu, Jing; Wang, Chongying – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Instruction in auditory-visual conditional discriminations for young children with autism spectrum disorder is typically based on either a conditional-only or a simple-conditional method. In this study, we evaluated a modified simple-conditional method in which we removed the steps for which visual comparisons were presented in isolation. We…

Vasudevan, Krithika; Ramanathan, Karthik R.; Vierkant, Valerie; Maren, Stephen – Learning & Memory, 2022
Recent data reveal that the thalamic nucleus reuniens (RE) has a critical role in the extinction of conditioned fear. Muscimol (MUS) infusions into the RE impair within-session extinction of conditioned freezing and result in poor long-term extinction memories in rats. Although this suggests that RE inactivation impairs extinction learning, it is…

Leeder, Thomas M. – Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators, 2022
The aim of this article is to provide a concise overview of the theoretical assumptions of behaviorism, which generally informs "traditional" approaches to sport coaching. B.F. Skinner's (1904--1990) theory of operant conditioning is discussed, alongside considerations for sport coaching practice. For coaches who draw upon the principles…

Sayegh, Fares; Herraiz, Laurie; Colom, Morgane; Lopez, Sébastien; Rampon, Claire; Dahan, Lionel – Learning & Memory, 2022
Dopamine participates in encoding memories and could either encode rewarding/aversive value of unconditioned stimuli or act as a novelty signal triggering contextual learning. Here we show that intraperitoneal injection of the dopamine D1/5R antagonist SCH23390 impairs contextual fear conditioning and tone-shock association, while intrahippocampal…

Wooderson, John R.; Bizo, Lewis A.; Young, Kirsty – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2022
This systematic review evaluated the effects of foreign tact training on emergent learning outcomes in ten published studies. We also conducted a meta-analysis of aggregate data from seven studies comparing outcomes of foreign tact training with other verbal operant procedures. The preliminary findings indicated foreign tact training produced…

Sato, Misato; Álvarez, Beatriz; Mizunami, Makoto – Learning & Memory, 2021
The effect of repetitive training on learned behavior has been an important subject in neuroscience. In instrumental conditioning in mammals, learned action early in training is often goal-driven and controlled by outcome expectancy, but as training progresses, it becomes more habitual and insensitive to outcome devaluation. Similarly, we recently…

Fatih Ugur Biber; Muharrem Özdemir – Turkish Online Journal of Educational Technology - TOJET, 2024
Defense industry is one of the sectors that boosts technological advancement and act as a trigger. In this industry, where personnel training plays a vital role, supporting military training with technology provides a great advantage on the battlefield. When we look at the problems that need to be solved, it is seen that the soldier's devotion to…

Cariveau, Tom; Ellington, Paige; Brown, Alexandria; Platt, Delanie F. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2023
Previous research on training auditory-visual conditional discriminations (AVCDs) have compared several prompt types including gestural, positional, and identity-matching prompts. Other prompting procedures, such as those that involve the manipulation of the comparison array, have received less attention in the applied literature. For example, the…

Ostroff, Linnaea E.; Cain, Christopher K. – Learning & Memory, 2022
Local protein synthesis at synapses can provide a rapid supply of proteins to support synaptic changes during consolidation of new memories, but its role in the maintenance or updating of established memories is unknown. Consolidation requires new protein synthesis in the period immediately following learning, whereas established memories are…

Belisle, Jordan; Dixon, Mark R.; Malkin, Albert; Hollie, Joshua; Stanley, Caleb R. – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2022
Competing viewpoints on the independency or interdependency of Skinner's verbal operants have been discussed in the literature and with empirical support for both positions generated using single-case research methods. Our study provides support for the interdependency of the verbal operants using items contained in the Verbal Behavior Milestones…

Friesen, Norm; Hölterhof, Tobias – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2022
"The Oxford English Dictionary" defines fulfilment as 'satisfaction or happiness as a result of fully developing one's potential or realizing one's aspirations; self-fulfillment'. Not only has the idea of fulfilment underpinned 'approximately twenty centuries of philosophy' as Lefebvre notes, it plays an indispensable role in both…

Silbaugh, Bryant C. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2021
Since Skinner's conceptualization of the mand, applied behavior analysis researchers have used the concept to develop stimulus control transfer procedures effective for addressing manding deficits. More recently, researchers have explored the clinical utility of reinforcing mand variability during mand training and functional communication…

Romi Fajar Tanjung; Sigit Dwi Sucipto; Khadijah Lubis; Yuni Dwi Suryani; Minarsi Minarsi – Journal of Education and Learning (EduLearn), 2024
Children are unique humans and experience varied development even though they are of the same gene or the same sex but grow and develop according to their respective characteristics. Of course, this condition also demands adjustments in providing appropriate and varied stimuli and responses. This study aims to observe the growth and development of…

Magali Jaoul-Grammare – European Journal of Education, 2024
Despite social changes and the opening up of all professions to men and women, society continues to adhere to many stereotypes, and many professions are still considered to be feminine or masculine. In addition to gendered representations of occupations, there are also social representations linked to the social prestige associated with a…

Emily K. Unholz-Bowden – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Interventions related to differential reinforcement (DR) are among the most frequently used within the field of applied behavior analysis (ABA). However, certain conditions can inhibit the level at which effects of these interventions maintain upon treatment challenges or generalize across contexts. This can result in the relapse, or recurrence of…
