审查了自助指南对残疾倡导团体成员的3项消费者倡导技能(准备和介绍简短的个人证词、给报纸编辑写信和给公职人员写信)的表现的影响。这些指南被用作行为假肢，研究人员没有提供任何培训。在实验一中，一名患有多发性硬化症的40岁女性准备了独立生活(IL)倡导信。技能表现由观察者使用行为检查表进行衡量。专家们对表演的质量和潜在影响进行了评级。结果表明，自助指南的使用提高了绩效，并导致了专家的更高评级。EXP II将这些结果扩展到10个IL组成员(年龄在19-57岁之间)。(保留所有权利，2016 APA)
Examined the effects of self-help guides on the performance of 3 consumer advocacy skills (preparing and presenting brief personal testimony, writing letters to a newspaper editor, and writing letters to public officials) by members of a disabilities advocacy group. These guides were used as behavioral prosthetics, and no training was provided by the researchers. In Exp I, a 40-yr-old female with multiple sclerosis prepared independent living (IL) advocacy letters. Skill performance was measured by observers using behavioral checklists. Experts rated the quality and potential impact of performances. Results indicate that use of self-help guides improved performance and led to higher ratings by experts. Exp II extended these results with 10 IL group members (aged 19–57 yrs).(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
