Yuan, Chengan; Deng, Xiaolei; Zhu, Jing; Wang, Chongying – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Instruction in auditory-visual conditional discriminations for young children with autism spectrum disorder is typically based on either a conditional-only or a simple-conditional method. In this study, we evaluated a modified simple-conditional method in which we removed the steps for which visual comparisons were presented in isolation. We…

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.…

Claire Shingleton-Smith; Julie Koudys; Alicia Azzano; Maurice Feldman – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
Parent-mediated interventions for infants and young children with an increased likelihood of autism may help ameliorate developmental concerns; however, generalization of parents' teaching strategies to novel child target skills has not been consistently demonstrated. This study expanded our parent training program, Parent Intervention for…

Lin, Fan Yu; Zhu, Jing – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2020
In teaching conditional discriminations to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), practitioners may progress from simple to conditional discriminations or may teach conditional discriminations from the onset of instruction. Some research indicates that teaching simple discriminations first may be unnecessary and that teaching may more…

Intercontinental Telehealth Coaching of Therapists to Improve Verbalizations by Children with Autism
Barkaia, Ana; Stokes, Trevor F.; Mikiashvili, Tamar – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2017
This study examined the effects of intercontinental telehealth coaching on the mastery of therapists' skills and improvements in verbalizations by children with autism, testing whether telehealth can be a solution for underserved communities in developing countries such as Georgia-Sakartvelo in Eastern Europe. Three therapists delivering and three…

Higbee, Thomas S.; Aporta, Ana Paula; Resende, Alice; Nogueira, Mateus; Goyos, Celso; Pollard, Joy S. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2016
Discrete-trial instruction (DTI) is a behavioral method of teaching young children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) that has received a significant amount of research support. Because of a lack of qualified trainers in many areas of the world, researchers have recently begun to investigate alternative methods of training professionals to…

Verbal Mediating Responses: Effects on Generalization of Say-Do Correspondence and Noncorrespondence
Lima, Edhen Laura; Abreu-Rodrigues, Josele – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2010
We analyzed the effects of verbal mediating responses on the acquisition and generalization of say-do correspondence and noncorrespondence. Participants were assigned to groups in which either reinforcers (feedback and tokens) were arranged for say-do correspondence and noncorrespondence, or no reinforcers were programmed. Participants in these…

Petursdottir, Anna Ingeborg; Olafsdottir, Alma Run; Aradottir, Berglind – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2008
We evaluated the effects of 2 types of training on the emergence of bidirectional intraverbal relations with 4 typically developing children. Tact training involved reinforcing foreign-language vocalizations in the presence of visual stimuli, and listener training involved reinforcing selections of visual stimuli following vocal presentations of…

Birnie-Selwyn, Beverly; Guerin, Bernard – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1997
A New Zealand study compared the results of two computerized matching-to-sample discrimination training conditions (critical-difference and multiple-difference training) in reducing consonant cluster (CC) errors made by six children (ages 4-7) on a constructed-response transfer test. Results indicate the critical-difference training condition was…

Leung, Jin-Pang; Wu, Kit-I – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 1997
The facilitative effect of incorporating echolalia on teaching receptive naming of Chinese characters to four Hong Kong children (ages 8-10) with autism was assessed. Results from two experiments indicated echolalia was the active component contributing to the successful acquisition and maintenance of receptive naming of Chinese characters.…

O'Reilly, Mark F.; Lancioni, Giulio E.; King, Lisa; Lally, Grainne; Dhomhnaill, Orla Nic – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2000
Functional assessments were conducted for two Irish individuals with severe disabilities and aberrant behavior. A modified attention condition was introduced, which involved both parents interacting with a third person. Aberrant behavior occurred only in the modified attention condition. Successful treatment consisted of delivery of attention on a…
