Abstract
The effect of monetary incentives on (a) dependent-independent and (b) extroversion-introversion behavior of 24 retarded adolescents was investigated. Five ratings were obtained at 2 month intervals over a 10 month period. A trend analysis of the data indicated significant desirable increases in social behavior. Additionally, the increase was compared and found different from that of a randomly assigned control group. In the last 2 month treatment interval, the students were taken on excursions into the surrounding community to effect a decrease in institutional dependencies. The evidence suggests that this too was an effective treatment.
