To decrease lies, we replicated differentially reinforcing honest reports about transgressions for one 6-year-old…

Brewe, A. M.; Reisinger, D. L.; Adlof, S. M.; Roberts, J. E. – Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, 2018
Background: Impairment in initiating joint attention (IJA) is associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children, although it is unclear when impairments arise. Due to the early development of IJA use and late diagnosis of ASD, groups at high-risk of ASD, such as infants with an older sibling with ASD (ASIBs) and infants with fragile X…
