Kodak, Tiffany; Fuchtman, Rashea; Paden, Amber
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v45 n1 p155-160 Spr 2012
We compared the effectiveness of three training procedures, echoic and tact prompting plus error correction and a cues-pause-point (CPP) procedure, for increasing intraverbals in 2 children with autism. We also measured echoic behavior that may have interfered with appropriate question answering. Results indicated that echoic prompting with error correction was most effective and the CPP procedure was least effective for increasing intraverbals and decreasing echoic behavior.
