Effects of Behavioral Skills Training on Parental Treatment of Children's Food Selectivity
Seiverling, Laura; Williams, Keith; Sturmey, Peter; Hart, Sadie
Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, v45 n1 p197-203 Spr 2012
We used behavioral skills training to teach parents of 3 children with autism spectrum disorder and food selectivity to conduct a home-based treatment package that consisted of taste exposure, escape extinction, and fading. Parent performance following training improved during both taste sessions and probe meals and was reflected in increases in children's acceptance of bites and decreases in their disruptive behavior. Parents also reported that increases in diet variety were maintained at follow-up. (Contains 2 figures and 1 table.)
