Failure to initiate and remain engaged in academic tasks can have long-lasting effects for students. In this study, we investigated the effects of high-preference sequences on both digits correct per minute and latency to initiate nonpreferred mathematics problems for 3 students with emotional and behavioral disorders. We found that high-preference sequences had negligible positive effects on rate of problem completion but had larger effects on problem initiation. This study replicates and extends prior work on the effects of high-preference sequences on mathematics problem initiation and completion.
未能开始并坚持完成学术任务可能会对学生产生长期影响。在这项研究中，我们调查了高偏好序列对 3 名情绪和行为障碍学生每分钟正确数字和开始非偏好数学问题的潜伏期的影响。我们发现，高偏好序列对问题完成率的积极影响可以忽略不计，但对问题启动的影响更大。这项研究复制并扩展了先前关于高偏好序列对数学问题启动和完成的影响的工作。
