Central to this approach is the notion that behaviors, both adaptive and maladaptive, are learned through reinforcement. By analyzing the environmental factors that reinforce problematic behaviors, clinicians can design interventions to weaken these reinforcements and replace maladaptive behaviors with healthier alternatives.
In operant conditioning, behaviors that are...

Area of Science:

  • Social cognition
  • Developmental psychology
  • Autism spectrum disorder research

Background:

  • Perspective-taking is crucial for social interaction and involves skills like deception.
  • Autistic children often face challenges in understanding and using deception.
  • Socially adaptive deception has practical applications in everyday life.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a training procedure for teaching deception skills to autistic children and adolescents.
  • To assess the effectiveness of multiple exemplar training, rules, modeling, practice, and feedback.
  • To determine if learned deception skills generalize to untrained scenarios.

Main Methods:

  • A multiple baseline across participants design was used.
  • Four autistic children and adolescents participated in the study.
  • The intervention involved multiple exemplar training, rules, modeling, practice, and feedback.

Main Results:

  • The training procedure was successful for all four participants.
  • Participants learned to use deception to play friendly tricks on others.
  • Generalization of deception skills to novel, untrained tricks was achieved.

Conclusions:

  • The evaluated intervention is effective in teaching social deception skills to autistic individuals.
  • This training can enhance social navigation and interaction abilities in autistic children and adolescents.
  • The findings support the use of targeted interventions to improve social-cognitive skills in autism.
