Matrix training consists of preplanning instruction by arranging components of desired skills across a minimum of two axes. In the current study, three matrices were developed for each participant (e.g., Matrix 1, Generalization Matrix 1, and Generalization Matrix 2) with known color and shape components. Following baseline, nonoverlapping (i.e., diagonal) training was conducted with Matrix 1. Results of posttests were used to determine the extent of emergence of untrained color-shape combinations across all matrices. Results from all six participants indicated that mastery criteria were eventually met for Matrix 1. For five participants, mastery criteria were also eventually met for generalization matrices. Results replicate findings from prior studies and offer a simple approach for both testing emergence of untrained skills and remediating responding.
矩阵训练包括通过在至少两个轴上安排所需技能的组成部分来进行预先规划指导。在当前研究中，为每个参与者开发了三个矩阵（例如，矩阵1、泛化矩阵1和泛化矩阵2），它们具有已知的颜色和形状组成部分。在基线之后，使用矩阵1进行非重叠（即对角线）训练。后测结果用于确定所有矩阵中未训练的颜色-形状组合的出现程度。所有六名参与者的结果表明，最终达到了矩阵1的掌握标准。对于五名参与者，泛化矩阵也最终达到了掌握标准。结果重复了先前研究的发现，并为测试未训练技能的出现和纠正反应提供了一种简单的方法。
