TY - JOUR PY - 1989// TI - The effects of training students with learning and behavior disorders to modify the behavior of their peers JO - Education and treatment of children A1 - Sugai, George A1 - Chanter, Carol SP - 134 EP - 151 VL - 12 IS - 2 N2 - This study investigated the effects of training two learning and behavior disordered students to ignore the inappropriate behavior and to reinforce the appropriate behavior of three learning and behavior disordered peers. Dependent measures included the percent of appropriate and inappropriate contacts made by target students to peer managers. A multiple baseline design across students was used to evaluate the effects of peer manager responses on target student behaviors. An analysis of results indicated that special education peer managers could be taught to utilize extinction and reinforcement procedures to increase their peers' appropriate behaviors and to reduce their inappropriate behaviors.
