Altaf, Enas MohammedNour; Bennett, Kyle D. – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Researchers have investigated several variations of video prompting (VP), including a recent version called continuous video prompting (CVP). When using CVP, a practitioner plays videos of each task step identically to what would be seen when using VP. With CVP, however, the video for a given task step repeats until the student completes the step…

Zucker, Ariel; Chang, Yookyung; Maharaj, Reena; Wang, Wei; Fiani, Theresa; McHugh, Susan; Feinup, Daniel M.; Jones, Emily A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
When one sibling has autism spectrum disorder, the sibling relationship is often characterized by poorer quality with fewer interactions. Because sibling relationships provide a vital social framework for development, they have the capacity to be a risk or protective factor, depending on the quality of the relationship. One way to improve the…

Buggey, Tom; Crawford, S. Caroline; Rogers, Chelsea L. – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2018
Video self-modeling (VSM) uses a method called "feedforward" to provide children the opportunity to view themselves as they perform in a more advanced or appropriate manner than they do presently. Typically, this is accomplished through the careful editing of videos. Studies on VSM and social skills with children on the autism spectrum…

Rispoli, Mandy J.; Davis, Heather S.; Goodwyn, Fara D.; Camargo, Siglia – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2013
Analogue functional analyses are a well-researched means of determining behavioral function in research and clinical contexts. However, conducting analogue functional analyses in school settings can be problematic and may lead to inconclusive results. The purpose of this study was to compare the results of a trial-based functional analysis with…
