Randall, Kristina N.; Ryan, Joseph B.; Walters, Sharon M.; Stierle, Jordan N. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2021
Assistive technology (AT) has been shown to be a promising method for supporting individuals with intellectual disability (ID) attain a higher degree of independence both at home and in the work place. The purpose of this alternating-treatment single-case research design study was to compare the effectiveness of three methods (i.e., Notes App,…

Dawson, Kara; Antonenko, Pavlo; Lane, Holly; Zhu, Jiawen – TEACHING Exceptional Children, 2019
Individuals with dyslexia face numerous challenges in school and daily life. Although effective intervention may reduce those challenges (Mather & Wendling, 2011; Shaywitz, 2003; Snowling & Hulme, 2012), most individuals with dyslexia benefit from additional supports that allow them to learn and function independently. The term assistive…

A Pilot Investigation of an iOS-Based App for Toilet Training Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Mruzek, Daniel W.; McAleavey, Stephen; Loring, Whitney A.; Butter, Eric; Smith, Tristram; McDonnell, Erin; Levato, Lynne; Aponte, Courtney; Travis, Rebekah P.; Aiello, Rachel E.; Taylor, Cora M.; Wilkins, Jonathan W.; Corbett-Dick, Patricia; Finkelstein, Dianne M.; York, Alyssa M.; Zanibbi, Katherine – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
We developed an iOS-based app with a transmitter/disposable sensor and corresponding manualized intervention for children with autism spectrum disorder. The app signaled the onset of urination, time-stamped accidents for analysis, reminded parents to reinforce intervals of continence, provided a visual outlet for parents to communicate…
