Differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) is a common strategy for escape-maintained behaviors targeted for reduction (i.e., targeted behavior) exhibited by youth with intellectual and developmental disabilities. DRA often involves various methods of prompting to ensure the instruction or task remains in place until contingencies…

An ABAB reversal design was employed to evaluate the effect of differential reinforcement of low (DRL) frequency behavior as an interdependent group contingency on the frequency of vocal disruptions of five males, 6-14-years old, diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. The results showed lower frequencies of vocal disruptions during…

Pennington, Robert; Welch, Karla; Kondaurova, Maria; Kuravackel, Grace M.; Zheng, Qi; Shah, Aamira – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2023
In the current investigation, we used a single case alternating treatments design to evaluate the effects of a robot prompter on the social interaction of three pairs of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Findings suggest that three participants produced more utterances and conversational turns when a robot prompter was present, and two…

Burak Atatekin; Mehmet Kara – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
While video feedback is a commonly used intervention in both professional and educational sports settings, empirical evidence on the effectiveness of training with augmented video feedback in physical education at the K12 level is quite scarce. For this reason, this study aims to investigate the effect of the training with augmented video feedback…

Background: People with post-stroke aphasia tend to have smaller social networks, a higher risk of depression and poorer health-related quality of life than those who do not have aphasia after stroke. Stroke-specific or general rehabilitation programmes offered by community-based organizations are commonly group-based and involve discussions among…

Icht, Michal; Carl, Micalle – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Background: The Beatalk technique is a speech therapy method, based on human beatboxing, involving intense, rapid repetitions of speech-like sounds. The goals of the current feasibility study were to test its effect in enhancing articulation accuracy and voice measures in a small group of adults with intellectual disability (ID), using a wide…

Amber Y. Wang; Robin F. Schumacher; Barbara J. Dougherty; Samantha Wavell; Joseph Dimino; Russell Gersten – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2024
This pilot study examined the feasibility of using worked examples as a mechanism to improve verbal explanations of fractions concepts among Grade 5 students with mathematics difficulties in a small-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) before scaling up to a large-scale RCT. Students (N = 49) were randomly assigned to a business-as-usual (BAU)…

Catherine Bent; Susan Glencross; Karen McKinnon; Kristelle Hudry; Cheryl Dissanayake; The Victorian ASELCC Team; Giacomo Vivanti – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
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…

De Ryck, Mira; Van Lierde, Kristiane; Alighieri, Cassandra; Hens, Greet; Bettens, Kim – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Children born with a cleft palate with or without cleft lip (CP ± L) are known to be at risk for speech-language disorders that impact educational and social-emotional growth. It is hypothesized that speech-language intervention delivered before the age of 3 years could decrease the impact of CP ± L on speech-language development.…
