Many deaths from cardiopulmonary arrest can be prevented by the prompt and effective administration of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). In this study, we examined the standard training program for teaching CPR to emergency medical technicians (EMTs). We developed an alternative experimental program whereby the behaviors involved in CPR were assessed easily and in greater detail. This assessment provided the basis for a system in which effective CPR skills were reinforced and problems were corrected. Subjects who were trained in CPR according to this experimental program performed more effectively than subjects in the standard program. In addition, retention (maintenance) measures indicated that experimental subjects continued to perform well, often more effectively than professionally employed EMTs.
通过及时有效地实施心肺复苏术（CPR），许多因心肺骤停导致的死亡可以避免。在本研究中，我们对向急救医疗技术员（EMT）传授心肺复苏术的标准培训项目进行了考察。我们开发了一个替代实验项目，通过该项目能够更轻松、更详细地评估心肺复苏术中涉及的行为。这种评估为一个强化有效心肺复苏技能并纠正问题的系统提供了基础。按照这个实验项目接受心肺复苏术培训的受试者比接受标准项目培训的受试者表现更出色。此外，留存率（维持情况）测量结果表明，参与实验的受试者持续表现良好，而且往往比受雇的专业急救医疗技术员表现更出色。
