Abstract: The purpose of this study was to compare reinforcement and model-reinforcement techniques in increasing students' classroom verbal participation. Primary hypotheses to be investigated were: (1) there is no significant difference between model-reinforcement and reinforcement groups' adjusted posttest frequency of responding in the small group; and (2) there is no significant difference between model-reinforcement and reinforcement groups' adjusted posttest frequency of responding in class.
