This investigation assessed the generalization of verbal behavior from school to home with three autistic boys. The study attempted to expand upon previous research by Handleman (1979) by analyzing the effects of single versus multiple trainers on generalization. By the use of a multiple-baseline design counterbalanced for treatment condition, the three youngsters were taught responses to common questions in two school settings and were probed to determine transfer of learning to their homes. All three children demonstrated greater generalization when they received training at varied locations as opposed to instruction in a single setting. Results of the study suggest that manipulating the school environment to more closely simulate home conditions may facilitate transfer of treatment gains to the natural setting.
本研究评估了三名自闭症男孩从学校到家庭的言语行为泛化情况。该研究试图在汉德曼（1979年）先前研究的基础上进行拓展，通过分析单一训练者与多个训练者对泛化的影响。采用针对治疗条件进行平衡的多基线设计，在两种学校环境中教授这三名青少年对常见问题的反应，并进行探测以确定学习是否能迁移到他们家中。与在单一环境中接受指导相比，当这三名儿童在不同地点接受训练时，他们都表现出了更强的泛化能力。研究结果表明，调整学校环境以更紧密地模拟家庭条件可能有助于将治疗成果转移到自然环境中。
