The biomotometer, an electronic device that simultaneously measures activity and provides auditory feedback to the subject, was used in combination with material reinforcers in two experiments attempting to modify activity level in children. In the first study the activity level of an 11-year-old highly active boy was decreased below mean baseline during conditioning in a classroom setting. His level of activity returned to baseline when feedback was withdrawn. In the second study, activity level of a 10-year-old hypoactive boy was increased over mean baseline level during conditioning in a free-play setting, and returned to slightly below baseline during five extinction trials. Results of these studies indicate that the biomotometer is a useful instrument for modification of activity level.
生物运动测量仪是一种能同时测量活动并向受试者提供听觉反馈的电子设备，在两项旨在改变儿童活动水平的实验中，它与物质强化物结合使用。在第一项研究中，一名11岁活动过度的男孩在教室环境中进行条件反射训练时，其活动水平降至平均基线以下。当停止反馈时，他的活动水平恢复到基线。在第二项研究中，一名10岁活动不足的男孩在自由玩耍环境中进行条件反射训练时，其活动水平超过平均基线水平，在五次消退试验期间又回到略低于基线的水平。这些研究结果表明，生物运动测量仪是改变活动水平的一种有用工具。
