Correspondence between saying and doing: Some thoughts on defining correspondence and future directions for application

Abstract

Israel (1978) evaluated and discussed research on positive and negative verbal-nonverbal correspondence. In the present report we attempt to delineate the relationship of correspondence training to two major intervention goals—producing (increasing) behavior and inhibiting (decreasing) behavior. The concepts of noncorrespondence and generalized positive correspondence are introduced. Past research relating to the correspondence analyses offered for the two intervention outcomes and possibilities for future research are discussed. The relationship of verbal correspondence training to the issues of response maintenance and response generalization is also examined.

Keywords: verbal-nonverbal correspondence, positive correspondence, negative correspondence, facilitating behavior, inhibiting behavior, self-instruction
