Training and maintenance of a picture-based communication response in older adults with dementia
J Appl Behav Anal.

Abstract
We examined whether adults with dementia could learn to emit a picture-based communication response and if this skill would maintain over time. Three women with moderate to severe dementia were taught to exchange a picture card for a highly preferred activity. All participants quickly learned to exchange the picture card and maintained this response without practice.
Keywords: communication; dementia; maintenance.
