Abstract:In synchronous‐reinforcement schedules, the duration of behavior directly controls the duration of reinforcement on a moment‐to‐moment basis. We replicated and extended Diaz de Villegas et al. (2020) by comparing the effects of synchronous reinforcement with two accumulated‐reinforcement schedules for increasing on‐task behavior for seven preschoolers. One accumulated schedule was the same as the one used in Diaz de Villegas et al. and did not include tokens, whereas the other accumulated schedule included the… Show more
