“…Four studies that used manual-signing DORs to teach DMTS will be described as examples of this approach. For two of these, the task was DMTS with picture (Bonta & Watters, 1981) or spoken word (Bonta & Watters, 1983) samples, and the comparisons were pictures. For the other two studies, the task was DMTS with a brief video of a person performing a manual sign, and the comparisons were pictures or written words (Elias & Goyos, 2013, 2015).…”

“…Bonta and Watters (1981) conducted a study in which three nonvocal children with developmental disabilities were required to manually sign the visual sample stimuli on each trial before performing a DMTS task. Accuracy for all three participants was initially at chance level on the DMTS baseline task.…”

“…During the last 10 trials in which the DOR was not required, the researchers recorded whether the participants performed the manual sign, and accuracy was higher when the participants engaged in the manual-signing DOR. In a second study, the same authors repeated the study, but with spoken words as samples (Bonta & Watters, 1983). As in the earlier study, the DOR improved accuracy, and when the requirement was removed, accuracy was higher on trials in which the participants engaged in the manual-signing DOR.…”

A differential observing response (DOR) is a behavioral requirement that verifies the discrimination of stimulus features that differ across relevant stimuli (Farber et al., 2017). The objective of this article is to identify procedures described in the current literature that function as DORs and to consider the utility of the DOR in discrimination learning. Procedures that function as DORs were categorized into one of the following DOR types: tacting, manual signing, echoic, text based, and identity matching. The use of DORs in the applied literature has served the following purposes: (a) to teach discrimination tasks, (b) to remediate ineffective teaching procedures, or (c) to augment observing and attending in a more complex target task by requiring a discriminative response in relation to the relevant features. DORs have been effective in teaching matching to sample, sorting, following instructions, and answering questions. Recommendations on variables to consider when incorporating DORs into educational settings are provided. Future research on DORs should examine novel applications, carry out comparative analyses, evaluate sustained progress after the removal of the DOR, incorporate DORs into daily life, and evaluate the inclusion of DORs when using multiple schedules.

“…Subsequently, we tried for individual studies using the same query with the following limiters: preschool child, and school-age child. This resulted in five hits with four meeting our relevancy criteria (Bonta and Watters 1983, Gaines et al 1988, Light et al 1990, Remington et al 1990). It turns out that all of these hits were indexed under the form/content type of 'empirical study,' just like the 'pearl'.…”
