Ingelin, Bonnie L.; Intepe-Tingir, Seyma; Hammons, Nanette C. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2023
Teaching children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) academic skills supports their future opportunities. For example, early number sense skills are predictive of future mathematical success for all children including children with ASD. Yet, research on foundational early childhood mathematics skills of children with ASD is limited. This study…

Martinez, Jose R.; Waters, Chelsea L.; Conroy, Maureen A.; Reichow, Brian – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2021
We conducted a systematic review and summarized the outcomes of single-case research design studies conducted in the last decade that have implemented peer-mediated interventions (PMI) to address the social competence needs of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) younger than 8 years of age. Eighteen studies with 53 children with ASD were…

Addressing the Challenging Behavior of Young Children through Systematic Function-Based Intervention
Wood, Brenna K.; Ferro, Jolenea B.; Umbreit, John; Liaupsin, Carl J. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2011
A decision model was used to systematically construct function-based interventions for the disruptive behaviors of three young children (ages 3.75-4.75 years) receiving special education services in inclusive preschool settings. The study was conducted in three phases. In Part 1, descriptive functional behavioral assessments (FBAs) were conducted.…
