Students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) face a range of difficulties at university, which can lead them to drop out or fail their studies. Among the solutions proposed to support them, technological tools may be relevant. However, although a great deal of work has been carried out on children with ASD, at university their effectiveness and…

Primary education students with autism spectrum disorder may present difficulties when solving arithmetical problems. Therefore, this exploratory and descriptive single case study aims to verify the suitability of a methodology based on modified conceptual models so that a student with autism spectrum disorder understands and correctly solves…

In an attempt to shed light on the social decision difficulties experienced by autistic adults, the current study examines the dynamics of experience-based social decisions. We developed an experiential task where participants' goal was to select the most kind and pleasant agent out of four, based on the valence (positivity/negativity) of the…

This systematic review synthesized the literature on vocabulary interventions designed for the students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A total of 31 articles (20 single case research design studies and 11 group design studies) met the inclusion criteria. The reviewed studies included 440 participants with ASD ages 3 to 14. In general,…

Daily living skills are imperative for independent adult living, which is why these skills are often prioritized by parents of autistic individuals. Video-based interventions (VBIs) are when someone creates video models of a specific skill to teach another individual that skill. VBIs are becoming more prominent to teach individuals daily living…

Previous research has indicated that the backgrounds in picture books have a higher impact on children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) than on children with typical development (TD). Based on prior research, this study investigates the effect of picture book presentation order on the fixation outcomes of ASD. The experiment included 59…

Using the World Health Organization Quality of Life- BREF (WHOQOL-BREF, 1997) and Chao's (2016) Self-Determination Scale for College Students (SDSCS), the study examined college students with autism perceptions of their self-determination skills and quality of life. The study sought to identify the levels of self-determination skills and quality…

Students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) require effective academic interventions tailored to their distinctive learning characteristics. This is especially important in mathematics since approximately a quarter of learners with ASD have a mathematics learning disability. This meta-analysis examined the effectiveness of mathematics…

As increasing numbers of autistic students pursue postsecondary education, it is important to understand the supports and barriers inherent in various institution types. Liberal arts colleges, with small class sizes and personalized learning environments, might be appealing to autistic students and their families. This study aims to explore the…

Children should be heard on matters that impact their educational lives. However, meaningfully engaging autistic children can be difficult for researchers and policymakers. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to summarise methods used to gather the views of autistic children on their primary educational experiences. Database searches…

Urine-detecting alarms are prevalent in toilet training intervention research and clinical practice for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, but the effects of urine alarms remain unclear. Urine alarms may function as punishing or reinforcing contingencies, or may merely alert trainers to accidents and improve treatment…

Students with autism spectrum disorder have been shown to benefit both academically and socially from inclusion in general education classrooms, but concerns remain about the persistence of separate special education settings around the world. Using special education program placement data from the Canadian province of Ontario and census data…

In the study, we compared the effectiveness and efficiency of two error correction (EC) procedures --a model of the correct response (MoCR) and remove and re-present (RRp)--when using discrete trial training (DTT) in teaching to identify the community signs to children with autism spectrum disorder. We also examined the maintenance and…

Although research has shown the benefits of caregiver-implemented interventions, there is still limited intervention research on caregivers from historically underrepresented groups. To increase accessibility and feasibility of interventions among culturally and linguistically diverse populations, studying the social validity or cultural relevance…

It is important for teachers and researchers to have access to evidence-based practices that target teaching specific content area skills, such as mathematics, to students with ASD (Hume et al., 2021). Previous literature reviews targeting mathematics interventions for students with ASD (Barnett & Cleary, 2016; Gevarter et al., 2016; King et…
