A library of visual reinforcers has been created to facilitate visual reinforcement audiometry (VRA) testing in children with developmental disabilities. The library includes 45 reinforcer sets-photos or videos grouped by a common theme-that were created based on commonly reported interests of children with developmental disabilities. Each reinforce set contains a minimum of 20 unique photo or video files that can be downloaded in two formats: one for commercially available VRA reinforcement systems and another for a custom setup. The library is freely available for download online under a Creative Commons License (Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License). Use of these materials has the potential to improve behavioral testing outcomes for children with developmental disabilities, including children with restricted interests. Future research is needed to determine the effectiveness of implementing these materials in clinical settings.
已创建了一个视觉强化物库,以促进对发育障碍儿童进行视觉强化听力测定(VRA)测试。该库包含45个强化物集——按共同主题分组的照片或视频——这些是根据发育障碍儿童普遍报告的兴趣创建的。每个强化物集至少包含20个独特的照片或视频文件,可通过两种格式下载:一种用于市售的VRA强化系统,另一种用于自定义设置。该库可根据知识共享许可(知识共享署名-非商业性4.0国际许可)在网上免费下载。使用这些材料有可能改善发育障碍儿童(包括兴趣受限的儿童)的行为测试结果。需要进一步的研究来确定在临床环境中使用这些材料的有效性。
