generalization-maintenance

What problem does it solve?

Generalization and maintenance are not byproducts of good teaching—they must be actively programmed. A skill that only occurs in the training context with the training therapist has limited clinical value.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Explicit exemplar training across multiple stimuli, people, and settings to promote robust skill transfer.
• Loose training and indiscernible contingencies to sustain behavior beyond the training context.
• Maintenance planning with transfer strategies, self-management, and booster strategies to preserve gains.
• Use Case: Implement a program that trains a child to greet multiple peers in clinic, home, and school, then probes generalization in everyday settings.

Quick Start

Begin by designing an exemplar training plan across stimuli and settings, then implement maintenance strategies and probes in ongoing sessions.
