Ciara L. Ousley; Tracy J. Raulston; Christina S. Gilhuber – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
Parent-implemented Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBIs), rooted from applied behavioral and developmental sciences, focus on empowering families by training and coaching natural change agents to embed evidence-based strategies during regular events or contexts (e.g., play time). No research, however, has relied on…
