The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of tact and intraverbal training on the establishment of generalized equivalence classes. Seventeen college students were exposed to tact training, listener testing, and intraverbal training (A'B' and B'C') in two experiments. Visual-visual matching-to-sample and intraverbal tests measured performances consistent with the formation of equivalence classes. Generalization was assessed with four novel sets of stimuli. In the second experiment, matching-to-sample tests for baseline relations (AB, BC) were eliminated to control for the possibility that equivalence classes were developed through exposure to these visual stimulus-stimulus relations. Thirteen of 17 participants passed all matching-to-sample and intraverbal posttests. Results suggest that when trained and emergent intraverbal relations were not maintained or were faulty, participants did not respond correctly during matching-to-sample posttests.
本研究的目的是评估触觉训练和互动语言训练对建立广义等价类别的影响。在两项实验中，17名大学生接受了触觉训练、听众测试和互动语言训练（A'B'和B'C'）。视觉-视觉样本匹配和互动语言测试测量了与等价类形成一致的表现。通过四组新的刺激来评估泛化情况。在第二项实验中，消除了对基线关系（AB、BC）的样本匹配测试，以控制等价类通过接触这些视觉刺激-刺激关系而形成的可能性。17名参与者中有13名通过了所有样本匹配和互动语言后测。结果表明，当训练的和出现的互动语言关系未得到维持或存在缺陷时，参与者在样本匹配后测中没有正确反应。
