Abstract

MEYER, Sonia Beatriz  and  POCHE, Cheryl E.. The effects of Self-Recording on the Generality of Parenting Behaviors. TransForm. Psicol. (Online) [online]. 2012, vol.4, n.1spe, pp. 93-117. ISSN 2176-106X.

Generality of parenting skills was programmed as well as assessed using the technique of self-recording from audiotapes. A multiple baseline across problematic situations was replicated with two single-parent families. Self-recording was introduced in one situation at a time, while audio taped assessments were conducted in three situations throughout the day. A combination incentive plus cost system was used to encourage the recording and coding of tapes. Parent and child behaviors changed in the desired directions after self-recording was directly introduced. In addiction, generality effects were clear in all response categories except descriptive praise. As the number of codings increased, greater behavior changes were evident in both targeted and non targeted situations.

Keywords : Parent training; self-recording; generality effects; generalization; audio recording.
