ABSTRACT
In the years immediately following the Mangere study, Glynn and McNaughton carried out a number of other studies using the same procedures and these were reported in Glynn and McNaughton which is included as a monograph within McNaughton, Glynn and Robinson. The purpose of these studies was to provide a firm research basis for the procedures before promulgating them further. Including the original Mangere project the pause, prompt and praise studies had by this time involved a total of over one hundred tutors and 98 children between the ages of 7 and 12. Since the tutoring periods were tape-recorded it was possible to carry out detailed analyses of the data reflecting what had been going on in the sessions. On 25 March 1986, a conference was held at the Centre for Child Study, University of Birmingham for teachers interested to learn more about the pause, prompt and praise procedures.
