A Comparison of Prompting Strategies to Teach Intraverbals to an Adolescent with Down Syndrome
Wallace, Abigail M.; Bechtel, D. Reed; Heatter, Sue; Barry, Leasha M.
Analysis of Verbal Behavior, v32 n2 p225-232 Oct 2016
Ingvarsson and Hollobaugh (2011) investigated tact- or echoic-to-intraverbal transfer of stimulus control to "wh" questions for three preschool-aged boys with autism. The current study was a systematic replication of this study with an adolescent girl with Down syndrome. A multi-element design was used to compare the effectiveness and efficiency of picture or echoic prompts presented on an iPad or in vivo to teach "wh" questions. All prompt conditions were effective. Conclusions and recommendations for practice are presented.
