EFFECTS OF DIFFERENT SYMBOLIC CODING STIMULI IN BEHAVIOR MODELING TRAINING

Abstract

Three types of learning points (behavioral, summary label, and rule‐oriented) and a no‐learning point control condition were compared in terms of their effects on two dependent variables (reproduction and generalization) in a behavior modeling training laboratory experiment (N= 80). Multivariate analysis of variance revealed that individuals who had been randomly assigned to the rule‐oriented and behavioral learning point conditions were able to generalize and reproduce the key behaviors better than a no learning point control condition. Those in the rule‐oriented condition were able to generalize the modeled behaviors to novel conditions more so than individuals assigned the behavioral learning point condition. Those who had received the behavioral learning points were able to imitate the modeled performance better than individuals in the rule‐oriented condition. Those who received the summary label learning points were not able to a reproduce, but could generalize the modeled behaviors to a different setting. There was no difference found between the summary label and rule‐oriented conditions on the generalization dependent variable.
