Ment Retard. 1990 Oct;28(5):311-7.
Three older adults with severe and moderate mental retardation were taught a complete regimen of aerobic-type exercises under conditions that approximated mainstream exercise programs. A treatment package (prompts, contingent praise, and delayed reinforcing activities) was implemented by individual coaches while participants followed the instructions of an exercise leader. Prompts were faded and contingent activities were discontinued following skill acquisition. All participants correctly performed between 63% and 85% of the exercise repetitions during training and between 82% and 95% at a 9-month follow-up. Issues and strategies for achieving integration of persons with mental retardation into mainstream leisure activities were discussed.
三名患有重度和中度智力障碍的老年人在近似主流锻炼项目的条件下接受了一套完整的有氧型锻炼方案培训。在参与者听从锻炼领队指示的同时，由个体教练实施一套治疗方案（提示、即时表扬和延迟强化活动）。技能习得后，提示逐渐减少，即时活动停止。所有参与者在训练期间正确完成了63%至85%的锻炼重复次数，在9个月的随访中这一比例为82%至95%。文中讨论了将智力障碍者融入主流休闲活动的问题及策略。
