Abstract:
This study evaluated the effects of a staff training package on the frequency (rate) of trial presentations to children diagnosed with autism. The training consisted of a combination of repeated timings, modeling plus frequency building, and modeling in vivo with the client plus frequency building. The experimenters implemented 20-min training sessions or frequency-building sessions with staff that used 1-min timings for trial presentation in each phase. Training resulted in a higher frequency of trials across all 3 participants in the modeling and feedback phase.

Steps in the Modeling Process
Attention is the first necessary component for observational learning. It involves focusing on what the model is doing and saying. For example, if you decide to take a drawing class to enhance your skills, you need to pay close attention to the instructor's words and hand movements. The characteristics of the model significantly...
