Direct linkCrandall, Madison Cloud; Bottema-Beutel, Kristen; McDaniel, Jena; Watson, Linda R.; Yoder, Paul J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
The relation between caregiver follow-in utterances with verbs presented in different states of dyadic engagement and later child expressive verb vocabulary in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was examined in 29 toddlers with ASD and their caregivers. Caregiver verb input in follow-in utterances presented during higher order supported…

Woynaroski, Tiffany; Yoder, Paul J.; Fey, Marc E.; Warren, Steven F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2014
Purpose: The authors examined (a) whether dose frequency of milieu communication teaching (MCT) affects children's canonical syllabic communication and (b) whether the relation between early canonical syllabic communication and later spoken vocabulary is mediated by parental linguistic mapping in children with intellectual disabilities (ID).…

Fey, Marc E.; Yoder, Paul J.; Warren, Steven F.; Bredin-Oja, Shelley L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2013
Purpose: The authors sought to determine whether a program of 5 weekly doses of milieu communication teaching (MCT) would yield improvements in children's communication and word use compared with a once-weekly delivery of the same treatment. Method: Sixty-four children with intellectual and communication delay were randomly assigned to receive…

Steven; Roberts, Wendy; Rogers, Sally J.; Schertz, Hannah H.; Smith, Isabel M.; Stone, Wendy L.; Watson, Linda R.; Wetherby, Amy M.; Yoder, Paul J.; Zwaigenbaum, Lonnie – Journal of Early Intervention, 2013
Given recent advances in science, policy, and practice of early identification in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), questions about the effectiveness of early intervention have far-reaching service and policy implications. However, rigorous research evaluating the efficacy and effectiveness of intervention programs for toddlers with ASD faces a…

Presmanes, Alison G.; Walden, Tedra A.; Stone, Wendy L.; Yoder, Paul J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2007
We compared responding to joint attention (RJA) in younger siblings of children with ASD (SIBS-ASD; n = 46) and younger siblings of children developing typically (SIBS-TD; n = 35). Children were tested between 12 and 23 months of age in a situation in which an experimenter directed the child's attention to one of 8 targets. Each child responded to…

Peer reviewedStone, Wendy L.; Ousley, Opal Y.; Yoder, Paul J.; Hogan, Kerry L.; Hepburn, Susan L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 1997
The forms, functions, and complexity of nonverbal communication used by 14 young (ages 2-3) children with autism were investigated. Comparison with children with developmental delays and/or language impairments on a structured assessment found that autistic children directly manipulated the examiner's hand and requested more often but were less…

Peer reviewedMcCathren, Rebecca B.; Yoder, Paul J.; Warren, Steven F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1999
This study examined the relationship between prelinquistic vocalization and expressive vocabulary one year later in 58 toddlers (ages 17- to 34-months old). Rate of vocalizations, rate of vocalizations with consonants, and rate of vocalizations used interactively were all positively related to later expressive vocabulary. (Author/DB)

Peer reviewedYoder, Paul J.; And Others – Journal of Early Intervention, 1995
This study tested the hypothesis that pretreatment level of play would predict the rate of increase in prelinguistic, intentional requesting during prelinguistic communication intervention of 8 children (ages 21 to 30 months) with developmental disabilities. A positive relation was found between amount of transitional or symbolic play at baseline…

Peer reviewedYoder, Paul J.; Warren, Steven F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2001
Prelinguistic children (N=58) with developmental delay received one of two staff-implemented treatments designed to increase intentional communication ability. Results confirmed the prediction that treatment effects on children's receptive and expressive language 6 and 12 months after intervention would vary as a function of pretreatment maternal…

Mcduffie, Andrea S.; Yoder, Paul J.; Stone, Wendy L. – Autism: The International Journal of Research & Practice, 2006
This study used an intact group comparison to examine attention following in 34 children aged 2 years diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) matched pairwise for vocabulary comprehension with a group of typically developing toddlers. For both groups of children, the presence of verbal labels during a referential task increased attention to…

Peer reviewedYoder, Paul J. – Journal of Early Intervention, 1990
The empirical support for three theoretical approaches to infant intervention is reviewed, including direct intervention via nonsocial means, direct intervention via social means, and indirect infant intervention via social support to the family. For each approach, underlying theoretical assumptions are identified, and for each assumption,…

Peer reviewedWarren, Steven F.; Yoder, Paul J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 1998
This study examined whether maternal responsivity would predict the extent to which prelinguistic milieu teaching (PMT) facilitated generalized intentional communication better than a contrast small-group treatment with 58 children (ages 17 to 36 months) with developmental disabilities. If mothers were relatively responsive before treatment, PMT…

Yoder, Paul J.; Warren, Steven F. – American Journal on Mental Retardation, 2001
Fifty-eight prelinguistic children with developmental disabilities and their mothers participated in an experimental test of whether intentional communication elicits maternal responses purported to facilitate language development. Results indicated that treatment effects on maternal responses varied by pre-treatment maternal education level and…

Peer reviewedYoder, Paul J.; Warren, Steven F. – Journal of Early Intervention, 1999
A study involving 58 children (ages 17-32 months) with prelinguistic communication delays found that in families with high responsivity, prelinguistic milieu teaching treatment facilitated increased self-initiated proto-imperatives and proto-declaratives. In families with low responsivity, responsive small groups comparison intervention…

Peer reviewedStone, Wendy L.; Yoder, Paul J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2001
Thirty-five children diagnosed with autism or pervasive developmental disorders at age 2 were re-evaluated 2 years later for factors related to spoken language development including child variables and environmental variables. After controlling for age 2 language skills, the only significant predictors of age 4 language skills were motor imitation…
