The present study examined the use of a progressive delay procedure to teach self-control to two groups of dually diagnosed adults. When given a choice between an immediate smaller reinforcer and a larger delayed reinforcer, both groups chose the smaller reinforcer during baseline. During treatment, progressive increases in work requirements for gaining access to a larger reinforcer resulted in both groups selecting larger delayed reinforcers. The results are discussed with respect to increasing cooperative work behavior and self-control.
本研究考察了采用渐进延迟程序对两组双重诊断的成年人进行自我控制训练的效果。当在即时较小强化物和较大延迟强化物之间进行选择时，两组在基线期均选择了较小的强化物。在治疗期间，为获得较大强化物而逐渐增加的工作要求使得两组均选择了较大的延迟强化物。讨论了有关增加合作工作行为和自我控制的研究结果。
