Parent and teacher training programs for autistic children showed that general behavior modification procedures were key for teaching new skills. Viewing the entire training package was necessary for adults to improve children's behaviors.

Area of Science:

  • Behavioral Psychology
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Special Education

Background:

  • Parent and teacher training programs are crucial for supporting children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
  • Assessing the generalized effects of training programs is essential for effective intervention.
  • Previous training methods sometimes failed to generalize to new behaviors or children.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the generalized effects of different parent/teacher training programs for children with autism.
  • To analyze the effectiveness of specific components within a generalized training program.
  • To determine the necessary conditions for training adults to improve autistic children's behaviors.

Main Methods:

  • Experiment I: Compared a brief demonstration with a general behavior modification procedure training for parents.

  • Experiment II: Analyzed individual components of a generalized training program using videotape illustrations.
  • Measured acquisition and generalization of adult and child behaviors.

    • Main Results:

    • Specific demonstrations taught parents target behaviors but did not generalize.
    • General behavior modification procedures effectively taught parents new child-target behaviors.
    • Videotapes taught adults, but only the full package enabled improvement in children's behaviors.

    Conclusions:

    • General behavior modification procedures are more effective for generalization in parent/teacher training.
    • The complete training package, including videotape illustrations, is necessary for improving autistic children's behaviors.
    • Multiple measures assessing both adult and child behavior acquisition and generalization are vital.
