Teaching Pretend Play Skills to a Student with Autism Using Video Modeling with a Sibling as Model and Play Partner
Reagon, Kara A.; Higbee, Thomas S.; Endicott, Katie
Education and Treatment of Children, v29 n3 p517-526 Aug 2006
We taught a four-year-old boy diagnosed with autism and his older brother to engage in four pretend play scenarios using video modeling. The older brother acted in the video models with a typically developing peer. Both the participant and his sibling successfully engaged in the four scenarios during intervention as well as maintenance and generalization probes conducted in their home. This case study illustrated that siblings of children with autism can perform in video models as well as engage in pretend play with their sibling with autism. In addition, the child with autism may benefit from sibling-oriented interventions as indicated by the intervention data and the parent and sibling survey questions presented in the current study.
