Stimulus–stimulus pairing (SSP) is a procedure used by behavior analysis practitioners that capitalizes on respondent conditioning processes to elicit vocalizations. These procedures usually are implemented only after other, more customary methods (e.g., standard echoic training via modeling) have been exhausted. Unfortunately, SSP itself has mixed research support, probably because certain as-yet-unidentified procedural variations are more effective than others. Even when SSP produces (or increases) vocalizations, its effects can be short-lived. Although specific features of SSP differ across published accounts, fundamental characteristics include presentation of a vocal stimulus proximal with presentation of a preferred item. In the present article, we draw parallels between SSP procedures and autoshaping, review factors shown to affect autoshaping, and interpret autoshaping research for suggested SSP tests and applications. We then call for extended use and reporting of SSP in behavior-analytic treatments. Finally, three bridges created by this article are identified: basic-applied, respondent–operant, and behavior analysis with other sciences.

刺激-刺激配对的翻译：学习者发声的自动塑造。


刺激-刺激配对（SSP）是行为分析从业者使用的一种程序，它利用受访者条件反射过程来引发发声。这些程序通常仅在用尽其他更常用的方法（例如，通过建模的标准回声训练）后才实施。不幸的是，SSP 本身的研究支持好坏参半，可能是因为某些尚未确定的程序变化比其他变化更有效。即使 SSP 产生（或增加）发声，其效果也可能是短暂的。尽管 SSP 的具体特征在不同的已发布帐户中有所不同，但基本特征包括呈现与偏好项目最接近的声音刺激。在本文中，我们将 SSP 程序和自动整形进行比较，回顾影响自动整形的因素，并解释自动整形研究以建议 SSP 测试和应用。然后，我们呼吁在行为分析治疗中扩展 SSP 的使用和报告。最后，确定了本文创建的三座桥梁：基础应用、受访者操作以及与其他科学的行为分析。
