Rana R. Yassa; Daniel R. Mitteer; Brian D. Greer; Shannon M. Angley; Liam H. McCabe; Omar M. Elwasli – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
We evaluated the effects of behavioral skills training on improving participant implementation of functional communication training with multiple schedules when working with a confederate. Behavioral skills training produced mastery-level responding for all six participants who required training, providing the first empirically supported training…

Adam M. Briggs; Samantha J. Zohr; Olivia B. Harvey – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
Behavioral skills training (BST) is an evidence-based approach for training individuals to implement discrete-trial teaching procedures. Despite the effectiveness of this approach, implementing BST can be time and resource intensive, which may interfere with a clinical organization's adoption of this training format. We conducted a scoping review…

Seth King; Anne Estapa; Tyler Bell; Joseph Boyer – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2024
Researchers increasingly identify virtual reality (VR) simulations as a potentially effective professional development tool. However, simulations used in education and behavior analysis typically require active oversight from technicians and instructors. "Smart" VR integrated with artificial intelligence could independently administer…

Sandra G. Smith; Stephanie L. Mattson; Juliana Aguilar; Nicole Pyle; Thomas S. Higbee – Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Behavioral skills training (BST) is a performance- and competency-based training package composed of instructions, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback. Previous reviews have demonstrated that BST is an effective training package to teach interventionists to implement behavior analytic interventions (Kirkpatrick et al. in "Journal of Behavioral…

Heather Armstrong; Claire McDowell; Gerard Leavey; Louise D. Denne – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2024
Background: Building 'key skills' may help prevent the development of challenging behaviour in children with an intellectual disability. The aim of this paper was to extend the current limited evidence in this area. Method: We undertook two studies with children with an intellectual disability in school settings: (1) a cross-sectional replication…

Evan H. Dart; Keith C. Radley; Kate A. Helbig; Chelsea Salvatore – Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation, 2024
Social communication deficits are one of the defining features of autism spectrum disorder. In schools, social communication deficits are assumed to be due to a skill acquisition issue and remediated through social skills instruction; however, social skills instruction has been fairly criticized, particularly by those in the autistic community, as…

Oral care-related challenges are well documented in the autistic community. This review examined interventions designed to improve oral health in autistic individuals across the lifespan. Through a systematic process, 36 studies were identified which focused on improving home-based oral care skills and routines, and reducing fear, anxiety, and/or…

Reena Cheruvalath; Ajay Ramchandra Gaude – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Classroom intervention focusing on peer interaction persuades children to develop positive behaviour. Peer interaction plays a significant role in managing problem behaviour among adolescent children. It facilitates identifying weaknesses in children's justification for their problem behaviour. Thus, the study aimed to propose a classroom…

Monik Mossini – International Journal on Social and Education Sciences, 2024
Adolescence is marked by significant emotional challenges, with mood disorders becoming increasingly prevalent, necessitating effective interventions. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills have emerged as promising tools for addressing emotional dysregulation in adolescents. This systematic literature review aims to evaluate the…

Javid A. Rahaman; Kevin C. Luczynski – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
Behavioral readiness can take the form of communication and self-control skills during challenging situations that are correlated with the development of problem behavior. A skill-based approach can teach behavioral readiness using procedures that involve synthesized reinforcement, probabilistic reinforcement, and contingency-based delays;…

Applied behavior analysis (ABA) focuses on providing socially significant treatments and practices. Recent advancements in ethically-minded research have encouraged practitioners to think beyond the technical skills required for implementing behavior-analytic practices and consider how these practices are delivered. Compassionate care in ABA has…

Jessica D. Slaton; Morgan Davis; David A. DePetris; Katherine J. Raftery; Salvatore Daniele; Christina M. Caruso – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
There are several considerations to address when conducting functional communication training for challenging behavior in a school setting, such as the need for schedule thinning and maintenance across staff and the need to establish a variety of appropriate classroom skills. There are several strategies for conducting schedule thinning following…

Gospel Y. Kim; Kathleen N. Tuck; Elisabeth J. Malone; Kathryn M. Bigelow – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2025
We examined the effectiveness of coaching on caregiver implementation of responding to joint attention (RJA) intervention for toddlers with autism. We used a nonconcurrent multiple-baseline across participants single-case research design to examine the relation between coaching practices and caregivers' RJA intervention implementation behaviors.…

Previous research evaluating behavior skills training and performance feedback has largely examined factors influencing interventionist performance outcomes. However, to our knowledge, researchers have yet to compile existing literature to specifically explore characteristics associated with improved learner outcomes in the context of…
