Book Evaluation of Maintenance Effects of Video Modeling with Siblings of Children with Autism

Download or read book Evaluation of Maintenance Effects of Video Modeling with Siblings of Children with Autism written by Elizabeth Ann Henry and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study extended the research on the use of video modeling with typically developing children. Participants included three sibling dyads, each consisting of a typically developing child (target child) and a child with a diagnosis of ASD (sibling). The target child watched video clips which demonstrated prompting and reinforcement strategies. The results indicated that video modeling was not sufficient to teach the target child these strategies. Supplemental teaching was required for each dyad.

Book Effects of Video Modeling on Teaching Typical Developing Siblings of Children with Autism how to Prompt and Reinforce Appropriate Play Behaviors

Download or read book Effects of Video Modeling on Teaching Typical Developing Siblings of Children with Autism how to Prompt and Reinforce Appropriate Play Behaviors written by Elanor Neff and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present study investigated 3 sibling dyads consisting of a typically developing sibling (target child) and his or her sibling with autism (sibling). The current study extended research on sibling training by examining video modeling alone as an independent variable. The video model included brief video clips of a therapist playing with a child with autism and demonstrating how to reinforce and prompt play behavior. The dependent variables included the target child's correct and incorrect delivery of prompts and reinforcers. Results indicated that for 2 of the 3 siblings video modeling alone was sufficient to teach prompts and reinforcement.

Book Teaching Conversation to Children with Autism

Download or read book Teaching Conversation to Children with Autism written by Lynn E. McClannahan and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scripting is a teaching method designed to help children and adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), who are nonverbal or who are verbal but dont initiate conversation, to initiate conversation. The authors draw on years of experience using scripts in their own clinic, and include many case studies that show how scripts have worked. The book defines scripts as an audiotape or written word, phrase, or sentence that enables young people with autism to use speech to start and continue conversations. At first a child is taught to play the recording of a word for an adult, and then get a reaction from the adult. (e.g., if he plays the script juice, the adult will give him a sip of juice or if he plays the script ball, the adult will play ball with him). Later on, the child is taught to play the script and then say the word himself (and get the reward from the adult). As the child becomes better at talking, scripts are lengthened to become phrases --want juice or play ball --- and then sentences. And once the child can read, scripts are written instead of recorded. As the child masters sets of scripts, the adult begins to diminish (fade) the prompts. If the script was recorded, words are gradually deleted from the recording. (e.g., if the script started out saying, Where is mom? they will re-record it so it just says Where is and then Where ---? At this point, the child should fill in the blanks.

This book was released on 2016-05-17 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) programs for young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It analyzes current research on early intervention (EI) and explains the importance of accurate, timely detection of ASD in facilitating the use of EI. Chapters address five widely researched EIBI approaches: Discrete Trial Training, Pivotal Response Training, the Early Start Denver Model, Prelinguistic Milieu Teaching, and Enhanced Milieu Teaching. This in-depth study of current EIBI approaches offers a rigorous guide to earlier and more intensive interventions for children with ASD, leading to greater autonomy and improved later life outcomes for individuals. Featured topics include: Parent-implemented interventions and related issues. Evaluations of controversial interventions used with children with ASD. Factors contributing to rising ASD prevalence. Obstacles to obtaining accurate ASD diagnosis in young children. Early Intervention for Young Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder is an essential resource for researchers, clinicians, and graduate students in developmental, clinical child, and school psychology, behavioral therapy/rehabilitation, social work, public health, educational policy and politics, and related psychology and behavioral health fields.

Book Applied Behavior Analysis for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders

Download or read book Applied Behavior Analysis for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders written by Johnny L. Matson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-09-18 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autism was once thought of as a rare condition, until the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network released the statistic that about 1 in every 150 eight-year-old children in various areas across the United States is afflicted by an autism spectrum disorder, or ASD. This news led to a dramatic expansion of research into autism spectrum disorders and to the emergence of applied behavior analysis (ABA) as the preferred method of treatment, even among prescribing practitioners. Applied Behavioral Analysis for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders ably synthesizes research data and trends with best-practice interventions into a comprehensive, state-of-the-art resource. Within its chapters, leading experts review current ABA literature in depth; identify interventions most relevant to children across the autism spectrum; and discuss potential developments in these core areas: Assessment methods, from functional assessment to single case research designs. Treatment methods, including reinforcement, replacement behaviors, and other effective strategies. The role of the differential diagnosis in ABA treatment planning. Specific deficit areas: communication, social skills, stereotypies/rituals. Target behaviors, such as self-injury, aggression, adaptive and self-help problems. ASD-related training concerns, including maintenance and transition issues, and parent training programs. This volume is a vital resource for researchers, graduate students, and professionals in clinical child and school psychology as well as the related fields of education and mental health.

Book The Effects of Video Modeling on Complimentary Behaviors Towards Children with Disabilities in Typically Developing Children

Download or read book The Effects of Video Modeling on Complimentary Behaviors Towards Children with Disabilities in Typically Developing Children written by Rhodes D. Wroth and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Video modeling has been an effective instructional tool to teach children with disabilities, however, there is less research on the effectiveness of video modeling to teach typically developing children. The participants of this study were two typically developing children, and they were siblings of child with a disability. This study used an ABAB experimental design to graph, and visually determine differences between control and intervention sessions. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of video modeling to teach typically developing children verbal complimentary behaviors in an inclusive physical activity setting. The results of this study found video modeling to be an ineffective tool to teach typically developing children verbal complimentary behaviors. Possible reasons for these results include: participant population, varying social opportunities, and small sample size. Therefore, future research should evaluate the effectiveness of video modeling to teach affective skills to a larger sample size of typically developing children, and evaluate the effectiveness of video modeling to teach this population both gross and fine motor skills.

Download or read book Autism Spectrum Disorders written by David Amaral and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 1445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autism is an emerging area of basic and clinical research, and has only recently been recognized as a major topic in biomedical research. Approximately 1 in 150 children are diagnosed as autistic, so it is also an intense growth area in behavioral and educational treatments. Financial resources have begun to be raised for more comprehensive research and an increasing number of scientists are becoming involved in autism research. In many respects, autism has become a model for conducting translational research on a psychiatric disorder. This text provides a comprehensive summary of all current knowledge related to the behavioral, experiential, and biomedical features of the autism spectrum disorders including major behavioral and cognitive syndromology, common co-morbid conditions, neuropathology, neuroimmunology, and other neurological correlates such as seizures, allergy and immunology, gastroenterology, infectious disease, and epidemiology. Edited by three leading researchers, this volume contains over 80 chapters and nine shorter commentaries by thought leaders in the field, making the book a virtual "who's who" of autism research. This carefully developed book is a comprehensive and authoritative reference for what we know in this area as well as a guidepost for the next several years in all areas of autism research.

Book The Effects of Video Modeling on Test of Gross Motor Development 3 Performance Among Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder

Download or read book The Effects of Video Modeling on Test of Gross Motor Development 3 Performance Among Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder written by Layne Katherine Case and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have been reported to have motor skill delays and deficits. However, there have been challenges to these findings on whether these deficits are due to lack of movement skills or inaccurate assessment methods. Due to relative strengths in processing visual stimuli as opposed to verbal stimuli within this population, instructional and assessment strategies that incorporate visual presentations are recommended. One visual support approach that has found to be successful among children with ASD is video modeling. Video modeling has been shown in the research to improve and maintain behaviors such as social and communicative skills, play skills, and self-help skills, but use is limited in physical activity and motor assessment settings. It is hypothesized that video modeling strategies may also improve motor performance by enhancing accuracy of motor skill assessments. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of video modeling on the assessment of motor skills among children with ASD. The Test of Gross Motor Development-3 (TGMD-3) was administered to measure motor skills of children in this study. Thirteen children with ASD (ages 11-16) and fifteen children without ASD (ages 3-11) participated in this study. Participants performed the TGMD-3 under two separate protocols (traditional condition and video modeling condition) in a counterbalanced order. The video modeling condition involved video demonstrations of the selected TGMD-3 skills made by the primary investigator and shown on an Apple iPad Air. The two testing conditions were completed on two distinct days within approximately 7 days of each other. Two repeated-measures one-way ANOVAs were used to examine the differences in gross motor scores between the testing conditions. Although gross motor scores of the video modeling condition among children with ASD increased by approximately 2 points, differences were not found to be statistically significant. Scores of children without ASD decreased by approximately 2 points following the video modeling condition, though differences were also not statistically significant. Two separate one-way repeated measures ANOVAs investigating the effectiveness of video modeling on total assessment duration revealed significant increases in assessment time using the video modeling condition, suggesting that the video modeling condition takes longer than the traditional condition. Lastly, two 2x3 (condition by preference) repeated measures ANOVAs revealed that both children with and without ASD perform better using the preferred condition (traditional versus video modeling) of the TGMD-3 though these differences were not significant. Future research is needed in order to further explore the effectiveness of video modeling strategies among children with ASD. Additionally, it is recommended that effective video modeling designs and procedures within motor assessment environments are provided in the literature.

Book Evaluating the Effects of Camera Perspective in Video Modeling for Children with Autism

Download or read book Evaluating the Effects of Camera Perspective in Video Modeling for Children with Autism written by Courtney Cotter and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Video modeling has been used effectively to teach a variety of skills to children with autism. This body of literature is characterized by a variety of procedural variations including the characteristics of the video model (e.g., self vs. other, adult vs. peer). Traditionaly, most video models have been filmed using third person perspective (i.e., scene models), where the viewer is watching the actor perform in a scene. Recently, studies have successfully incorporated the use of first person perspective into video models (i.e., point of view models), where the view is directly from the actor's point of view. Currently, no studies have directly compared the effects of camera angle on learning when video models are used as teaching tools. Six boys with autism ages 4-8 years learned yoked pairs of tasks, with one task assigned to each type of modeling condition. The effects were evaluated using an adapted alternating treatments design that allowed for a direct comparison between conditions with task difficulty held constant. Few differences in rate of acquisition and attention to the model were observed. Video modeling was not always successful as a teaching tool for targeted tasks. Supplemental teaching strategies (e.g., in vivo modeling with error correction) were employed when video modeling was ineffective for one or both tasks. This study provides evidence that camera angle does not generally have an effect on video modeling effectiveness. It also provides furhter evidence that video modeling may not always be an effective teaching tool for all children with autism.

Book Social Initiation with Siblings of Children with Autism

Download or read book Social Initiation with Siblings of Children with Autism written by Nikko Symonne Da Paz and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) have difficulty with social interactions, they may not regularly engage in play activities with their siblings. Using an alternating treatment design, this study examined the efficacy of video-modeling (VM) and video self-modeling (VSM) to improve social initiations and duration of play between three children diagnosed with ASD, ages 6-7 years old, and their siblings. Dependent variables were (a) latency to initiate interaction; and (b) duration of time engaged together in play. In-home sessions of video instruction taught children to approach their sibling and say, “Lets play.” Preference assessments identified toys used during intervention. Generalization exposed participants to novel toys without viewing a video model. Baseline results indicated two children did not initiate play at baseline nor did they engage in play with their sibling. One child initiated play in three baseline sessions but did not remain engaged throughout the entire session. After exposure to the intervention, all children more quickly initiated social play across VM, VSM, and Generalization. Upon acquiring this pivotal social skill, children diagnosed with ASD maintained social engagement with siblings across a variety of play activities. This research demonstrated that VM and VSM were equally effective in training the target skills. Keywords: autism, video modeling, play engagement, sibling.
