The Mechanism for How Children Can Learn 10,000 Names by Age 5 by Observation Alone
Increased Complexity in Incidental Bidirectional Naming Stimulus Control Enhances Reading in First Graders
Observation, Language Learning, and Development
General Reflections on Interactions between Cross-Disciplinary Theories of Human Language Development
The Effects of a Direct Instruction Curriculum Sequence on the Reading Comprehension Responses of Early Readers
Reading comprehension is critical for early learners’ academic success. Derived relations are an important feature of reading comprehension within the science of behavior because reading comprehension involves experientially acquired derived stimulus relations (Helou-Care, 2008; Neves in Behavioral Interventions 38:376–400, 2023, Park, 2005; da Silva in Experimental Analysis of Human Behavior Bulletin 24:1–8, 2006). That is, derived relations per…
The Effect of the Establishment of Preference for Math on Rate of Learning for Pre-Kindergarten Students
A Strategic Science of Teaching for a More Just Education System
Effects of a Composite-to-Component Vocal Phoneme Segmentation Intervention on Remediating Kindergarteners' Difficulties in Learning to Read
Stimulus Control for Making Math Verbal
Increasing Requests for Information by Preschoolers with and without Language-Based Disabilities
We report two experiments on the emission of questions to request the names of unfamiliar stimuli by preschoolers. In the first experiment, 19 preschoolers with and without disabilities served as participants. Experiment 1 was a descriptive analysis of whether or not the 19 participants asked questions about unfamiliar pictures and objects in one-to-one and group settings. These were dependent variables in the second experiment as well. Four part…

Establishment of Conditioned Reinforcement for Reading Content and Effects on Reading Achievement for Early-Elementary Students
The evolution of verbal behavior in children
Introduction Complex language is one of the unique repertoires of the human species. Others include teaching and certain of (Premack, 2004), although these too may be pre-or co-requisites for certain functional uses of language. Over the last 40 years linguists have proposed theories and provided evidence related to their interpretation of the structure of language (Chomsky, 1959; Chomsky & Place, 2000, MacCorquodale, 1970; Pinker, 1999). Neurosc…

Psychological Foundations of Music Behavior
Music Listening Preferences of Elementary School Children
Nonverbal tests using an episodic reinforcement device were conducted to ascertain the music preferences of children in elementary grade levels. The tests also provided data on listening attention span in these grades. Results indicated a growing preference for rock music over nonrock music with advancing grade level, with a critical change observable between third and fourth grade levels
