本研究通过两个实验探讨了刺激-刺激配对对条件性发声的影响。四名有严重语言和沟通障碍的学龄前儿童参加了研究。在实验1中，尝试通过将特定的声音与强化事件（例如，物理交互）。结果表明，刺激刺激配对的介绍是有效的条件反射的目标发声的声音，这增加了这些声音的发声的参与者。实验2比较了配对程序与回声训练的效果。配对程序与实验1中的配对程序相同。在回声训练条件下，实验者发出目标声音，并给参与者一个回声的机会。同样的强化刺激（例如，物理交互）是根据参与者发出的目标声音的出现而提供的。结果表明，配对程序比回声训练更有效。这项研究的结果表明，对于这些参与者，谁没有声乐模仿技能，刺激刺激配对是一个有效的程序条件声乐的声音作为mascers，并增加了发生的发声的概率没有直接的强化应急。
Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of stimulus-stimulus pairing on conditioning vocal sounds as reinforcers. Four preschoolers with severe language and communication delays participated. In Experiment 1, an attempt was made to condition vocal sounds as a reinforcer by pairing a specific vocal sound with a reinforcing event (e.g., physical interaction). Results indicated that presentation of a stimulus-stimulus pairing was effective in conditioning the target vocal sounds as reinforcers, which increased the occurrence of vocalizations of those sounds by the participants. Experiment 2 compared the effects of the pairing procedure with those of echoic training. The pairing procedure was identical to that in Experiment 1. In the echoic training condition, the experimenter produced the target vocal sound and gave the participant an opportunity to echo. The same reinforcing stimulus (e.g., physical interaction) was provided contingent upon the occurrence of the target vocal sound emitted by the participant. Results showed that the pairing procedure was more effective than the echoic training. Findings from this study suggest that for these participants, who had no vocal imitation skills, the stimulus-stimulus pairing was an effective procedure for conditioning vocal sounds as reinforcers and increased the probability of occurrence of the vocalization without a direct reinforcement contingency.
