Laushey, Kelle M.; Heflin, L. Juane
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v30 n3 p183-93 Jun 2000
This study used an ABAB design to determine if a peer buddy approach in which kindergarten students were trained to interact in dyads would increased non-adult direct interactions. Data collected on the two kindergarten students with autism indicate the peer buddy approach significantly increased their appropriate social interactions. (Contains references.) (Author/CR)
