Appropriate physical education program for students with an intellectual disability can increase their engagement in inclusive physical activity; however, fewer than a quarter of students with an intellectual disability meet the current physical activity guidelines. In this study, we used a single-case multiple probe across participants design to…

We used a multiple probe across participants design to assess the effects of a peer-delivered simultaneous prompting procedure on the health content learning of three high school students with moderate intellectual disability. One student without a disability served as the peer tutor to deliver the simultaneous prompting procedure during a…

Within the context of a multiple baseline design, the researchers in this investigation used a constant time delay (CTD) procedure to teach two classroom support personnel (i.e., paraprofessional, peer tutor) to use a simultaneous prompting (SP) procedure when teaching a high school student with a moderate intellectual disability to (a) identify…

This investigation evaluated the effectiveness of using peer tutors to teach a chained leisure skill (i.e., UNO card game) to three middle school students with disabilities using a simultaneous prompting procedure within a multiple probe design. The investigation also assessed whether the students with disabilities would acquire four unrelated…

This study evaluated the effectiveness of and reliability of peer tutors implementing a constant time delay procedure when teaching four high school students with moderate and severe disabilities to prepare foods using picture recipes. We used a multiple probe design across subjects to determine the effectiveness of the peer tutor implemented…

Effects of peer versus teacher delivered individualized instruction when teaching basic sight words with a constant time delay procedure to four secondary students with moderate/severe disabilities are compared. Results show that, while both modes of delivery are effective, teacher instruction was slightly more efficient than peer tutor…

Describes a systematic program conducted at a rural secondary school to teach students with moderate mental retardation ways to resist peer pressure. Peers without disabilities were used to identify common situations of peer pressure and to serve as confederates in setting up situations where students with mental retardation learned to "just say…

For five years, a collaborative team consisting of a special education teacher, a general education teacher, and a university professor conducted research studies in a rural secondary school. Although the general education teacher initially was reluctant to participate in a research project, especially one that involved students with disabilities,…

This article describes how a program to involve peers without disabilities in the delivery of incidental information to students with disabilities was implemented in elementary and secondary classrooms. Guidelines are presented for peer presentation of nontargeted information, along with examples ways in which students with disabilities have…

Four adolescents with moderate mental disabilities were taught by peers to read key words from labels of cooking products using constant time delay. Students mastered the reading of target key words in a relatively short amount of time with minimal errors, acquired some incidental learning of cooking definitions, and were able to generalize the…
