Abstract:
Instructive feedback (IF) is a teaching strategy where extra information, or secondary targets, are presented in the consequence portion of an instructional interaction. Unlike teaching primary targets, no response is required from the learner after presentation. In the current investigation, the procedures from Tullis et al. (2017, The Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 33(1), 64-79) were replicated and extended to include measures of maintenance and generalization. For all participants, primary and secondary targets were acquired and maintained up to 2 months. Generalization from training to naturalistic environments was observed for two participants.

Steps in the Modeling Process
Attention is the first necessary component for observational learning. It involves focusing on what the model is doing and saying. For example, if you decide to take a drawing class to enhance your skills, you need to pay close attention to the instructor's words and hand movements. The characteristics of the model significantly...
