Efecto de los múltiples roles y un tipo de descripción pre contacto sobre la descripción pos contacto en una tarea de igualación de la muestra.

Abstract

The main objective of the research was to determine the effect of the multiple roles and a type of description prior to the work - instructional function - of the Generic Pertinent GP type on the description of the information-contact-classification of rules-from the conceptualization of the inter-behavioral theory on this phenomenon, in a sample of 20 people, men and women with ages between 18 and 42 years; to whom an equalization task of the first order sample was applied; An ABA experimental design was used (Castro, 1977). To carry out the study, the sample was divided into 4 groups, each of them shared the same number of roles and was exposed to the same number of trials; it was found that G2 and G4 showed a proportional increase in each phase, but G3 and G4 presented the highest percentage of products in the post-test phase, the G1 presented fewer percentages of products, in comparison with the other groups in Phase B of training and post-testing; however, it was the on y Group that showed lack of learning and lack of relationship with MS and CE. From these findings it can be concluded that people with more roles, greater difficulty in the abstraction of elements, that do not allow to execute the task with a high quality and precision; and the participants with less demands of the medium as secondary roles, the greater attention in the content of the instruction (description prior to the GP type), which allows and facilitates the acquisition and maintenance of the behavior in the post-test phase, exceeding the criterion of effectiveness in terms of successes.
