| Abstract: | Two men with intellectual disabilities initially demonstrated intermediate accuracy in two‐choice matching‐to‐sample (MTS) procedures. A printed‐letter identity MTS procedure was used with 1 participant, and a spoken‐to‐printed‐word MTS procedure was used with the other participant. Errors decreased substantially under a delayed‐sample procedure, in which the choice stimuli were presented first and the sample was presented only after 5 s without a response to the choice stimuli. |
