A Children's Reinforcement Survey Schedule

Abstract
This paper describes a Children's Reinforcement Survey Schedule based on the Reinforcement Survey Schedule developed by Cautela and Kastenbaum (1967). The children's schedule is presented in three forms. There are two, parallel short forms for children in kindergarten through Grade 3, and a long form for children in Grades 4 through 6. A reliability test in the form of a test-retest situation was administered on all three forms of the new scale and the product-moment correlations (.48—.72) obtained were all significant ( p < .02). The scale might be used in three general areas: initially in behavioral assessment, subsequently in clinical procedures applicable either in individual or group settings with children, and in research.
