Abstract
The article focuses on a study which analyzed the effect of key behavior distinctiveness on generalization and recall in behavior modeling training. Subjects were asked to view the videotape chosen in the pretest, recall the key behaviors they saw in the performance, identify the key behaviors seen in the performance from a longer list, and to rate the key behaviors on distinctiveness. The effect of key behavior distinctiveness on generalization and recall was also investigated. The results of the study indicate that increasing key behavior distinctiveness by the inclusion of written learning points on the visual model enhances generalization, especially with low distinctiveness key behaviors.Keywords
