Slanzi, Crystal M.; Vollmer, Timothy R.; Iwata, Brian A.; Kronfli, Faris R.; Williams, Lisa Pabst; Perez, Brandon C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
A goal of some functional analysis (FA) variations is to reduce assessment time while still maintaining efficacy. This may be especially important when conducting FAs in early intervention programs, where time is a crucial commodity. To that end, we evaluated a model for using the results of the no-interaction condition as a screening for…

Bergmann, Samantha; Turner, Maria; Kodak, Tiffany; Grow, Laura L.; Meyerhofer, Courtney; Niland, Haven S.; Edmonds, Kaitlyn – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are taught conditional discriminations often during early intervention. Auditory-visual conditional discrimination (AVCD) training requires the presentation of multiple antecedent stimuli, and the order of stimulus presentation varies in the literature. This series of studies replicated previous…

Kodak, Tiffany; Bergmann, Samantha; Cordeiro, Maria Clara; Bamond, Meredith; Isenhower, Robert W.; Fiske, Kate E. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Auditory-visual conditional discrimination training (e.g., receptive identification training, listener responses; AVCD) is ubiquitous in early intervention and special education programs. Nevertheless, some learners with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) do not appear to benefit from this training despite use of empirically validated treatments. To…

Zagrabska-Swiatkowska, Patrycja; Mulhern, Teresa; Ming, Siri; Stewart, Ian; McElwee, John – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Class inclusion (CI) requires responding to an item simultaneously as a member of both a class and a more inclusive class that contains that class. This study extends previous research by Ming et al. (2018) who trained CI responding in typically developing children and individuals with autism using a Relational Frame Theory (RFT) approach…

Vosters, Megan E.; Luczynski, Kevin C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Teaching procedures that facilitate the emergence of novel responses allow for increased efficiency, which is critical when providing early-intervention services to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Three 5- and 6-year-old children diagnosed with ASD participated. In Experiment 1, we demonstrated functional control over the effects of…

Jorgenson, Courtney D.; Clay, Casey J.; Kahng, SungWoo – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
The purpose of this study was to evaluate preference for and reinforcing efficacy of a therapy dog to increase verbal statements across different contingencies. Five children with autism spectrum disorder ages 3-8 years participated. Alternating treatments and reversal designs were used to compare conditions in which (a) a therapy dog was not…

Sivaraman, Maithri; Virues-Ortega, Javier; Roeyers, Herbert – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
SARS-CoV-2 is the virus causing COVID-19 and is spread through close person-to-person contact. The use of face masks has been described as an important strategy to slow its transmission. We evaluated the effects of coaching caregivers via telehealth technologies to teach face mask wearing to children with autism spectrum disorder. Six participants…

Lee, Gabrielle T.; Hu, Xiaoyi; Liu, Yanhong; Yang, Zijin – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2021
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often lack symbolic play skills. Attribution of pretend properties (APP) is a type of symbolic play in which a child tacts pretend properties of an object (e.g., smelling a toy flower and saying, "It smells like a rose!"). Three Chinese boys (5-6 years of age) with ASD served as participants.…

Campanaro, Alexandra M.; Vladescu, Jason C.; Kodak, Tiffany; DeBar, Ruth M.; Nippes, Kasey C. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effect of implementing differential reinforcement at different times relative to the onset of teaching new skills to learners with autism spectrum disorder. Specifically, we first determined the most efficient differential reinforcement arrangement for each participant. Using the most efficient…

Perez, Brandon C.; Bacotti, Janelle K.; Peters, Kerri P.; Vollmer, Timothy R. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
The current study evaluated a toilet-training treatment package described by Greer et al. (2016) with children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Most of the current research on toilet-training interventions for children with ASD are replications and modifications of Azrin and Foxx (1971) or (more recently) LeBlanc et al. (2005).…

Kuntz, Emily M.; Santos, Abby V.; Kennedy, Craig H. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Although perseverative speech is a common characteristic of individuals with high-functioning neurodevelopmental disabilities, little is known about the operant functions of these verbalizations. We conducted analogue functional analyses of perseverative speech for 2 students using reinforcement contingencies that included alone, attention,…

Knutson, Sophie C.; Kodak, Tiffany; Costello, Dayna R.; Cliett, Terra – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
The current study extends the literature on task interspersal (TI) by comparing the effects of four different TI ratios on the efficiency of skill acquisition and on levels of problem behavior in children with autism spectrum disorder and related disorders. The four ratios of TI were 3:1, 1:1, 1:3, and 0:1 mastered-to-acquisition tasks. An adapted…

Buckley, Jessica; Luiselli, James K.; Harper, Jill M.; Shlesinger, Andrew – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
We describe intervention with 2 adolescent male students who had autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and resisted haircutting performed by care providers at a residential school. The students were exposed to a graduated hierarchy of steps including the presence of hair clippers, and increased duration of hair clippers against their scalp and hair.…

Dowdy, Art; Tincani, Matt; Schneider, W. Joel – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
Publication bias is the disproportionate representation of studies with large effects and statistically significant findings in the published research literature. If publication bias occurs in single-case research design studies on applied behavior-analytic (ABA) interventions, it can result in inflated estimates of ABA intervention effects. We…

Watkins, Laci; O'Reilly, Mark; Kuhn, Michelle; Ledbetter-Cho, Katherine – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2019
The literature suggests that children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) educated in inclusive settings generally do not interact with typically developing classmates during social activities. This study assessed whether an intervention package consisting of interest-based structured play activities involving adult instruction, modeling, and…
