Sergio Cored-Bandrés; Marta Liesa-Orús; Sandra Vázquez-Toledo – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2025
The generalisation of learning is one of the main elements to take into account when carrying out an educational intervention. This process involves certain difficulties for the population with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In this sense, the aim of the present study is to evaluate the process of generalisation of skills related to the social…

Sally B. Shepley; Amy D. Spriggs; Mark Samudre; Kai M. O'Neill – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2025
Exercise is necessary for healthy living, yet individuals with intellectual disability (ID) remain strikingly inactive compared with nondisabled peers. To improve this outcome, individuals with ID can exercise independently by self-instructing. Self-instruction is considered a pivotal skill once it generalizes to untrained stimuli. This study used…

Todt, Mollie J.; Barton, Erin E.; Ledford, Jennifer R.; Robinson, Gabriela N.; Skiba, Emma B. – Journal of Early Intervention, 2023
Researchers have identified effective instructional strategies for teaching peer imitation, including embedded classroom-based interventions. However, there is a dearth of strategies that have been effective for teaching generalization of imitation skills to novel contexts. Building on previous research, we examined the use of progressive time…

Chu-Lung Wu – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2023
Improving the ability to solve mathematical word problems is one of the most critical issues facing students with developmental disabilities, because it is directly related to their independent living skills. The purpose of this study was to propose a teaching model that implements augmented reality (AR) and video modeling (VM), and to validate…

Reyes, Elizabeth N.; Wood, Charles L.; Walker, Virginia L.; Voggt, Ashley P.; Vestal, Amanda R. – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2022
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…

Ethington, Amber T.; Spriggs, Amy D.; Shepley, Sally B.; Bausch, Margaret E. – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2022
Research demonstrates that combining video modeling and visual activity schedules into video activity schedules has been effective in increasing independence for students with disabilities. However, the instructional procedures used to teach students to acquire the necessary skills to navigate those tools vary among existent research. In this…

Francis, Rachel; Winchester, Claire; Barton, Erin E.; Ledford, Jennifer R.; Velez, Marina – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Research suggests peer imitation can be taught using systematic procedures and can be embedded into ongoing play contexts with preschool-age children. However, additional research is needed to test procedures that may increase levels of peer imitation with toddlers with disabilities and in generalized contexts. We used a multiple probe across…
