Title: | An Experimental Investigation of the Reinforcing and Extinguishing Effects of Implicit Rewards on Children's Handwriting | Contributor(s): | Sharpley, Christopher Francis (author); Macleod, Gordon (supervisor); Irvine, Jim (supervisor); Hattie, John (supervisor); Fitzgerald, Donald (supervisor) | Conferred Date: | 1982 | Copyright Date: | 1981 | Open Access: | Yes | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/22378 | Abstract: | Two studies were conducted to investigate the effects of feedback of results, verbal praise, approval stamps and sweets as rewards for the correct letter-writing responses of typical elementary school children. The first study examined the effects of age and group-size upon the children's responses to variations in reward-administration procedures. Data were collected on the principal dependent variable of handwriting, comments and complaints were recorded, and a post-intervention questionnaire administered. | Publication Type: | Thesis Doctoral | Rights Statement: | Copyright 1981 - Christopher Francis Sharpley | HERDC Category Description: | T2 Thesis - Doctorate by Research |
