Fading Extra-Stimulus Prompts with Autistic Children Using Time Delay.

Wolery, Mark; And Others

Education and Treatment of Children, v11 n1 p29-44 Feb 1988

Three children with autism (ages seven-nine) were taught to verbally name pictures using a progressive time delay procedure. Results of a multiple probe design across pictures and replicated across students indicated that the time delay procedure was effective in fading extra-stimulus prompts. The procedure resulted in nearly error-free acquisition. (Author/JDD)
