Abstract

This study investigated the effects of a training package for increasing the sharing behavior of seven behaviorally handicapped preschool children in a freeplay setting and evaluated the generalization of training effects to a recess period. The 12-day training program in freeplay consisted of instructions, modeling, behavioral rehearsal, and in-session teacher prompts and praise regarding sharing skills.
