Young, K. Richard; And Others
Education and Treatment of Children, v9 n1 p16-29 Feb 1986
Whole task training and graduated guidance were used to teach independent dressing skills to two developmentally disabled 4-year-olds. After the boys acquired basic dressing skills, additional practice (fluency training) elevated their performance to socially validated rates. Follow-up showed that the skills were maintained and generalized to nontraining conditions. (Author/JDD)
