Brief Report: An Evaluation of An Instructional Package for Teaching Sentence Construction to Students with ASD
Pennington, Robert C.; Rockhold, Jessica
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v48 n1 p301-306 Jan 2018
In the current study, we investigated the effects of an instructional package on the construction of sentences writing by four children ages 6-9, with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We employed a multiple probe across behaviors design to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention package and also conducted probes to assess generalization and increases in the use of spoken sentences. Data indicated that the package was effective and produced variable levels of maintenance and generalized responding across three of the participants. Further, changes in vocal responding were observed in one of the participants.
