The acquisition of daily living skills (DLS) represents an important component in establishing independence and increasing the quality of life for individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. Video prompting has become a popular intervention to teach DLS and researchers have used different perspectives when filming the video (e.g.,…

Video prompting (VP) is an evidence-based practice, but few studies have included teachers and paraeducators as implementers. We adopted one of the single-case designs (multiple probe design) to evaluate the effectiveness of teacher and paraeducator-implemented VP on vocational skills for four high school students with significant intellectual and…

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…

Background: Individuals with intellectual disabilities need continued supports in completing daily living tasks to increase the likelihood of achieving independence. Fortunately, research has shown that assistive technology, and particularly video prompting helps support independent living for individuals with intellectual disabilities. Aims: This…

Self-determination is a complex process with several components, such as making choices and independence. However, limited research on self-determination has focused on individuals with moderate to severe autism spectrum disorder. This study aimed to support independent leisure engagement and choice-making of leisure activities for this population…

Students with extensive support needs often require intensive individualized instruction across domains. Research suggests that students with extensive support needs can achieve greater independence when evidence-based practices are used to teach independent transitioning skills. This study investigated the effects of video self-modeling (VSM) and…

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an online, multi-component intervention (video modeling, online mathematical games, self-monitoring checklists, and least to most prompting) in teaching mathematics skills to autistic secondary school students using a multiple probe design across skills. This study is unique from previous…

Peer-mediated intervention (PMI) within the inclusive early childhood setting increases social exposure between children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and typically developing peers. However, PMI research to date has provided limited data on the adherence of strategies taught to typically developing peers during training. The present study…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of using video modeling (VM) to teach three young adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID) to independently communicate their physical location via text and phone call. We used a multiple-probe research design across behaviors to evaluate the effects of the…

Teaching parents how to create their own video-prompting (VP) and implement it to help their children learn daily living tasks at home can be empowering for parents. Using a multiple probe across three tasks design, we examined the effects of parent-created and parent-implemented VP and error correction strategy on teaching three daily living…

Adults with intellectual disability (ID) have significantly lower levels of fitness compared to the general population. The study examined the effects of a multicomponent familiarization intervention, consisting of a visual activity schedule and a video-enhanced system of least-to-most prompting, both displayed via an iPad, on the acquisition of…

Federal legislation for students with disabilities mandates that all students receive appropriate and relevant instruction across environments to improve postsecondary outcomes across domains. Teachers and parents alike have found that one way to meet individual student needs and increase instructional opportunities for students with disabilities…

Musculoskeletal fitness is important for adults with intellectual disabilities (ID) to maintain cardiovascular fitness, functional independence, and work task performance, and to reduce the risk of chronic diseases and other disabilities. However, adults with ID typically have significantly lower musculoskeletal fitness compared with their peers…

Individuals with intellectual disability (ID) often experience a combination of both intellectual and adaptive functioning deficits which negatively impact their ability to obtain and maintain competitive employment. Fortunately, research has shown that assistive technology, and particularly video prompting, helps support employment for…

Several strategies (e.g., performance feedback, video models, tactile prompting) have been found to be effective for improving preservice teachers' use of foundational behavior management skills. However, there is limited research examining these training strategies for promoting preservice clinicians' use of evidence-based behavior management…
