Chazin, Kate T.; Bartelmay, Danielle N.; Lambert, Joseph M.; Houchins-Juárez, Nealetta J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017
This study evaluated the effectiveness of a clustered forward chaining (CFC) procedure to teach a 23-year-old male with autism to follow written recipes. CFC incorporates elements of forward chaining (FC) and total task chaining (TTC) by teaching a small number of steps (i.e., units) using TTC, introducing new units sequentially (akin to FC), and…

We reasoned that increased exposure to the sequence may particularly benefit…
