This book was released on 2015 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Video modeling has been found to be effective in teaching play behavior to children diagnosed with autism. Recently, differences in the "point of view" shown in the video have been studied with this population. The purpose of the present study was to further investigate the effects of point-of-view video modeling in order to improve the pretend play skills of three boys aged 5-7 years diagnosed with autism. Additionally, multiple exemplars of the same play script were presented to increase novel responding during play. The combined design was based on multiple baseline design across participants with an alternating treatment to investigate the effects of video modeling intervention and multiple exemplars. Each child learned pretend play actions and verbalizations from two different play themes. One play theme had three similar scripts with minor variations that were presented in three separate videos. A second play theme had only one script which was presented in one video. Results were mixed. Point of view video modeling was effective in teaching two different sequences of pretend play actions and verbalizations for one child. It was only effective in teaching motor actions, but not verbal responses to the second child. Neither behavior improved for the third child. Presentation of minor variations in video exemplars did not result in increased levels of novel play. Implications for point-of-view video modeling and strategies to increase actions not modeled in the video on the play behavior of children with autism are discussed.

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.

Download or read book The Effects of Point of view Video Modeling on Symbolic Play Actions and Play associated Language Utterances in Preschoolers with Autism written by Lauren Kravetz Bonnet and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This single-subject research study was designed to examine the effects of point-of-view video modeling (POVM) on the symbolic play actions and play-associated language of four preschool students with autism. A multiple baseline design across participants was conducted in order to evaluate the effectiveness of using POVM as an intervention for students with autism. The participants were between the ages of 3 and 4 years old and enrolled in a special education preschool program in a public school district in a Mid-Atlantic state. Students were paired with typically developing preschool peers from general education classes at the same school as the participants with autism. Prior to the implementation of the video model, baseline data were collected from students during play with a randomly selected play partner participant and the same materials later shown in the video model. Regulated randomization procedures for multiple baseline design were used to randomize students to each tier of intervention and randomly assign the treatment starting point from a designated interval of acceptable start points. Dependent measures included (a) scripted symbolic play actions, (b) scripted play-associated language utterances, (c) spontaneous symbolic play actions, and (d) spontaneous play-associated language utterances. During intervention, the participants with autism were shown a video clip demonstrating symbolic play actions and play-associated language utterances from their perspective immediately prior to engaging in a 7-minute play session with a play partner participant. The variety of symbolic play actions and play-associated language utterances were recorded and measured during all phases. Additionally, partial interval recording was used to record frequency of inappropriate play behaviors. Maintenance data were collected after the immediate removal of the POVM and one week after the conclusion of the intervention phase. Generalization data were collected for a novel but similar play set to that in the video model. A checklist for procedural reliability was completed for 68% of sessions across all phases and participants and calculated to be 100%. Interobserver agreement was calculated for 31.58% of sessions across all phases and participants and was averaged at 90.81%. Social validity measures were collected from the teacher, instructional assistants, and therapists that work with each participant. Additionally, information about student perceptions was collected from each participant using a visual choice menu. A visual analysis was conducted for the data collected across the four dependent variables and one ancillary finding for each participant. The visual analysis involved interpretation of the level, trend, variability, overlap, immediacy, and consistency of data points. Percent of Non-overlapping Data (PND) and randomization tests were also used for analysis. Overall findings from the study indicate that (a) three out of four preschool participants with autism increased the variety of scripted symbolic play actions after watching the POVM, (b) three out of four preschool participants with autism increased the variety of spontaneous symbolic play actions after watching the POVM, (c) one out of four preschool participants with autism increased the variety of scripted playassociated language utterances, (d) two out of four preschool participants with autism increased the variety of spontaneous play-associated language utterances, and (e) three out of four preschool participants with autism decreased the frequency of inappropriate play behaviors. In reference to maintenance of behaviors, (a) all four participants maintained the variety of scripted symbolic play actions, (b) all four participants maintained the variety of spontaneous symbolic play actions, (c) one out of four participants maintained the variety of scripted play-associated language utterances, (d) two out of four participants maintained the variety of spontaneous play-associated language utterances, and (e) three out of four participants maintained a reduction in the frequency of inappropriate play behaviors. Regarding generalization of behaviors for the dependent variables, (a) two out of four of the participants demonstrated a variety of scripted symbolic play actions from the intervention play set when playing with another car-based play set, (b) all four participants demonstrated a variety of spontaneous symbolic play actions during generalization with a different car-based play set, (c) one out of four participants produced a variety of scripted play-associated language utterances from the intervention during play with a different car-based play set, (d) two out of four participants produced a variety of spontaneous play-associated language utterances when playing with the generalization play set, and (e) three out of four participants were able to maintain a reduced frequency of inappropriate play behaviors during generalization probes. The results of the regulated randomization test indicated a statistical difference between the students variety of scripted play actions (p = 0.0078) and frequency of inappropriate play behaviors (p = 0.0104). There was no statistical difference between the students' variety of spontaneous play actions (p = 0.2708), scripted language utterances (p = 0.7396), or spontaneous language utterances (p = 0.7031). Recommendations were discussed with respect to future research and practical uses of POVM to assist with teaching symbolic play actions, play-associated language utterances, and improving student behavior.
