Sani-Bozkurt, Sunagül; Bozkus-Genc, Gulden – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2023
With technological developments in the 21st century, robot applications have proven to be beneficial in providing some opportunities to help with teaching numerous skills such as joint attention and social skills to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). However, in the studies investigating the effects of robots on joint attention (JA) in…

Many autistic children require support to meet their learning needs. Given the heterogeneity within the autism spectrum it is plausible that different types of support might be better suited to different children. However, knowledge on what interventions work best for which children is limited. We examined the outcomes of autistic preschool-aged…

Ya-Chih Chang; Stephanie Shire; Wendy Shih; Connie Kasari – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Play is critical in the development of cognitive and language skills in young children with autism; however, few studies have examined the impact of the intervention on the development of play skills. The current study aims to address the change in developmental skills, including play after participation in the JASPER intervention, and to examine…

Sterrett, Kyle; Holbrook, Alison; Landa, Rebecca; Kaiser, Ann; Kasari, Connie – Augmentative and Alternative Communication, 2023
The use of speech-generating devices (SGD) in early interventions for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can improve communication and spoken language outcomes. The purpose of this study was to describe children's responsiveness to SGD input modeled by a social partner during adult-child play interactions over a 24-week intervention…

Issues with joint attention, especially avoiding eye contact with others, are considered one of the core defects found in the early stages of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study is the first to use pupil reflection technology, which can be used to present an image of the participants within the virtual character's eyes on the…

Mrachko, Alicia A.; Kaczmarek, Louise A.; Kostewicz, Douglas E.; Vostal, Brooks – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2023
We examined adult behavioral skills training (BST) for home-based therapeutic support staff (TSS) using a naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI) with young children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) derived from Project ImPACT. We taught three TSS to use interactive strategies with online modules, in-vivo training, and ongoing…

Alicia Nehrkorn Hellner – ProQuest LLC, 2021
A single-subject research design was utilized to study the effects of noise-cancelling headphones on students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in the classroom. Academic success has long been linked to students' time spent on-task in the classroom. Interventions to maintain time spent on-task have been studied and researched but many, currently…

Chen, Meng-Ting; Chang, Yen-Ping; Marraccini, Marisa E.; Cho, Miao-Chun; Guo, Nai-Wen – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2022
Objective: Theory suggests that impaired executive functioning (EF) might explain several symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in children. However, only a few studies have examined the efficacy of EF training for the children using randomized control trial designs, and only two of them found significant benefits of the training. Method: We…

Polychronis, Shamby C.; Johnson, Andrea; Thelin, Russell J.; Eggett, Dennis L.; Christensen, Jaime – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2023
The use of mobile applications (apps) is popular among parents and teachers due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of implementation, and the number of apps with the specific aim to increase eye contact for children with autism is growing rapidly. However, research is limited to assess the efficiency of the majority of the apps available for…
