Elevation of voice volume in young developmentally delayed children via an operant shaping procedure

L Fleece et al. J Appl Behav Anal. 1981 Fall.

Abstract

Unusually low voice volume was identified by teachers as a significant impediment to the academic and social progress of two preschool students. A simple operant shaping procedure was conducted by teachers to increase voice volume using a voice-activated apparatus with attractive visual display. Setting generalization of volume increases to the classroom was achieved and maintained at one- and four-month follow-ups.
