Two students were alternately presented with interspersed high‐compliance requests and social comments as antecedents to low‐compliance requests. An initial comparison demonstrated similar positive effects on compliance for interspersed requests and social comments. A second analysis indicated that the effectiveness of social comments for increasing compliance was related to the time interval between social comments and low‐compliance requests.
