Interaction between the effects of respiratory stress and thermal stress has been objectively identified. Analyses of data on distance run, percentage of inspiration at termination, and respiration rate at termination indicate the low value of resistance, 0.1 mm H2O-min/liter, to be the point at which interaction occurs. The heat load value causing interaction is somewhat equivocal. A model has been proposed which is consistent with our results and which defines the stress limitations for...

The use of reciprocal behavior contracts with families of behavior-problem adolescents was investigated. Most family contracting to date has involved one-way contracts; that is, the child agrees to certain responsibilities for which he will be reinforced by the parents. A reciprocal contract requires the parents, in addition to the child, to agree to certain responsibilities (or behaviors) in exchange for which the child offers reinforcers to the parents. This novel form of contracting has...
