Treatment integrity is the extent to which components of an intervention are implemented as intended (Gresham, 1989). Recent behavior‐analytic literature has begun to evaluate the effects of reduced‐treatment integrity on the efficacy and efficiency of skill‐acquisition interventions. This study extended the current literature on the effects of errors of omission and commission of reinforcer delivery by replicating and extending Hirst and DiGennaro Reed (2015). Using a randomized‐control group design, we compared undergraduate student participants' acquisition of conditional discriminations in a parametric analysis of different error values. A computer program erred in reinforcer delivery on 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 50% of trials. The purpose of the current study was to identify which levels of reduced integrity slowed or prevented acquisition. Our data replicated the findings of Hirst and DiGennaro Reed, and extended parametric analyses by identifying that errors in reinforcer delivery occurring on 15% or fewer trials (i.e., 85% integrity) were unlikely to prevent participants' responding from meeting the mastery criterion. These results could inform future research on how treatment‐integrity errors change behavior‐analytic procedures and the effects on skill acquisition for consumers of applied behavior analysis.

强化物传递中的错误何时会影响学习？处理完整性的参数分析

治疗完整性是干预的组成部分按预期实施的程度（Gresham，1989）。最近的行为分析文献已经开始评估降低治疗完整性对技能获取干预的功效和效率的影响。本研究通过复制和扩展 Hirst 和 DiGennaro Reed（2015 年），扩展了当前关于省略和委托强化剂传递错误影响的文献。使用随机对照组设计，我们比较了本科生参与者在不同误差值的参数分析中获得的条件歧视。计算机程序在 0%、5%、10%、15%、20%、25% 和 50% 的试验中错误地传递强化剂。当前研究的目的是确定哪些水平的完整性降低会减慢或阻止获取。我们的数据复制了 Hirst 和 DiGennaro Reed 的发现，并通过确定在 15% 或更少的试验（即 85% 的完整性）中发生的强化剂传递错误不太可能阻止参与者响应达到掌握标准，从而扩展了参数分析。这些结果可以为未来的研究提供信息，即治疗完整性错误如何改变行为分析程序以及对应用行为分析消费者技能习得的影响。从满足掌握标准来响应。这些结果可以为未来的研究提供信息，即治疗完整性错误如何改变行为分析程序以及对应用行为分析消费者技能习得的影响。从满足掌握标准来响应。这些结果可以为未来的研究提供信息，即治疗完整性错误如何改变行为分析程序以及对应用行为分析消费者技能习得的影响。
