Abstract
The previous chapter detailed programs with psychiatric patients, the mentally retarded, and individuals in classroom settings. While that research illustrates the extensive literature on token economies, it does not convey the breadth of applications. This chapter reviews a number of other populations that have been exposed to token-reinforcement procedures including delinquents, adult offenders, drug addicts, and problem drinkers. In addition, diverse uses of token programs in outpatient treatment both with children and adults are reviewed. Finally, applications with select populations who have been infrequently treated with token programs and in select research areas are briefly cited.
