A Preliminary Demonstration of a Dependent Group Contingency in Alternative Education
摘要
Group contingencies have an extensive literature base indicating their effectiveness in alternative education. Of the three types of group contingencies, interdependent and independent are the most researched in alternative education. A recent systematic literature review indicates that, to date, there has not been a published evaluation of a dependent group contingency in alternative education. The current study is a clinical demonstration of a dependent group contingency effectively reducing challenging behavior in an elementary alternative education classroom.
