Rule‐governed behavior and derived stimulus relations have always shared strong conceptual links within behavior analysis. However, experimental analysis linking the two domains remains limited. The current study consisted of three experiments that aimed to continue to bridge this experimental gap. The first experiment sought to establish the extent to which a training version of the implicit relational assessment procedure (IRAP) could be used to establish and successfully reverse experimentally established derived relations. The results suggested that the Training IRAP could successfully produce derived reversals. Experiments 2 and 3 explored the extent to which reversed derived relations would control rule‐governed behavior when the contingencies for rule‐following competed with the rule. In Experiment 2, the task contingencies were immediately in opposition to the (reversed) derived rule, and participants generally responded in accordance with the task contingencies, rather than the rule. In Experiment 3, the task contingencies were initially rule‐consistent before a contingency reversal that later made them rule‐inconsistent. Here evidence of rule‐persistence emerged. The results of the research are considered within the context of a recent framework that has emerged out of RFT for analyzing the dynamics involved in derived relational responding.

探索训练 IRAP 作为单个参与者上下文，用于分析反向派生关系和持续的规则遵循

规则支配的行为和派生的刺激关系在行为分析中总是具有很强的概念联系。然而，连接这两个领域的实验分析仍然有限。目前的研究包括三个实验，旨在继续弥合这一实验差距。第一个实验试图确定隐式关系评估程序 (IRAP) 的训练版本可用于建立和成功逆转实验建立的派生关系的程度。结果表明，训练 IRAP 可以成功地产生衍生的逆转。实验 2 和实验 3 探讨了当遵守规则的偶然性与规则竞争时，反向派生关系在多大程度上控制规则支配行为。在实验 2 中，任务突发事件直接与（逆向）导出规则相对立，参与者一般按照任务突发事件而不是规则做出反应。在实验 3 中，任务偶然性最初是规则一致的，然后偶然性逆转，后来使它们变得规则不一致。这里出现了规则持久性的证据。研究结果是在 RFT 中出现的最近框架的背景下考虑的，该框架用于分析衍生关系响应中涉及的动态。这里出现了规则持久性的证据。研究结果是在 RFT 中出现的最近框架的背景下考虑的，该框架用于分析衍生关系响应中涉及的动态。这里出现了规则持久性的证据。研究结果是在 RFT 中出现的最近框架的背景下考虑的，该框架用于分析衍生关系响应中涉及的动态。
