Pennington, Robert C.; Mohammad, Marta; Mims, Pamela J.; Muharib, Reem – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2020
In the current study, we employed a concurrent multiple probe across participants design to examine the effects of an intervention package (i.e., response prompting, frames, technology) on sentence writing for three participants, ages 10-12, with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Specifically, we taught participants to write…
