Kimberley L. M. Zonneveld; Niruba Rasuratnam; Jason C. Vladescu – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2025
Motor vehicle collisions are among the leading causes of unintended injury-related deaths among children under the age of 14. The primary cause of these deaths is the improper use of child passenger safety restraints (CPSRs). Correctly installed CPSRs can decrease the risk of fatal injury by 45% to 95%. To date, no studies have used video…

Onur Kurt; Zehra Cevher; Metehan Kutlu – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of video modeling to teach safety skills during earthquakes and postearthquake evacuation to children with autism. Three male children with autism, aged 9-10 years, participated in the study. The results indicate that video modeling was effective at promoting the acquisition of…

Abadir, Christina M.; DeBar, Ruth M.; Vladescu, Jason C.; Reeve, Sharon A.; Kupferman, Douglas M. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
Deficits in safety skills and communication place individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) at risk of danger. Abduction prevention remains an understudied area. Video modeling has proven to be effective in some research on teaching safety skills to individuals with ASD. Existing research has yet to assess responding to lures from known…

Carlile, Kelly A.; DeBar, Ruth M.; Reeve, Sharon A.; Reeve, Kenneth F.; Meyer, Linda S. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2018
Deficits in safety skills and communication deficits place individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) at an increased risk of danger. We used a multiple-probe across-participants design to evaluate the effects of video modeling and programming common stimuli to teach low- and high-tech help-seeking responses to children with ASD when lost.…

Miltenberger, Raymond G.; Fogel, Victoria A.; Beck, Kimberly V.; Koehler, Shannon; Shayne, Rachel; Noah, Jennifer; McFee, Krystal; Perdomo, Andrea; Chan, Paula; Simmons, Danica; Godish, Danielle – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2013
Using a control group design, we evaluated the effectiveness of the "Stranger Safety" DVD (The Safe Side, 2004) and parent training of abduction-prevention skills with 6- to 8-year-old children. Children in the training or control group who did not demonstrate the safety skills received in situ training from their parents. There was no…

Beck, Kimberly V.; Miltenberger, Raymond G. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2009
Child abduction is a serious problem; therefore, it is essential that researchers evaluate the efficacy of commercially available abduction-prevention programs. A multiple baseline design across participants (ages 6 to 8 years) was used to evaluate the effects of a training program, The Safe Side. Experimenters assessed safety responses in situ in…
