  1. Contingency Management • Contingency management (CM) refers to the systematic application of basic principles delineated by workers in the field of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior to assist individuals in changing their behavior.

  4. Mammogram Compliance Rate of Compliance Rates of mammogram screening were 2.5 times higher for the incentive as compared to the control women. (Stoner et al., 1998)

  5. In 1989-91, immunization rates were as low as 23% for two-year olds in the Chicago area. Childhood Immunizations

  17. CTN 006 & 007

  18. Random Assignment • • Standard care • • Standard care with • prize CM • 3-month evaluation
