Cortney DeBiase; Jaime A. DeQuinzio; Ethan Brewer; Bridget A. Taylor – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2024
We used an adapted alternating treatments design to compare the effects of traditional and embedded discrete trial teaching (DTT) with adults with autism. Traditional DTT consisted of the instructor presenting a discriminative stimulus to start each trial ("Point to___"), implementing a prompt (i.e., manual guidance), and providing…

Ciobha A. McKeown; Carley E. Smith; Timothy R. Vollmer; Lindsay A. Lloveras; Kerri P. Peters – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2024
Teaching an infant manual signs is beneficial as it promotes early communication, improves socialization, and can functionally replace behaviors such as crying and whining. Improving early communication also may reduce the probability of an infant engaging in dangerous behavior, like unsafe climbing. The purpose of this study was to extend…

Shawn N. Girtler; Emily K. Unholz-Bowden; Alefyah Shipchandler; Rebecca L. Kolb; Jennifer J. McComas – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2024
Although the last decade has welcomed evidence that individuals with Rett syndrome (RTT) can communicate using alternative and augmentative communication (AAC), less is known about effective procedures for teaching various component skills required for expressive communication of individuals with complex communication needs. The purpose of the…

Angela L. Mahaffey – Journal of College Science Teaching, 2024
First-year undergraduate nursing students enrolled in a GOB (general, organic, biological) Chemistry for Health Professions course often exhibit an initial apprehension in their chemical education. Due to students' varying backgrounds in chemistry, it becomes difficult to engage them in chemistry and gauge their comprehension of lecture concepts.…

Javid A. Rahaman; Kevin C. Luczynski – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2024
Behavioral readiness can take the form of communication and self-control skills during challenging situations that are correlated with the development of problem behavior. A skill-based approach can teach behavioral readiness using procedures that involve synthesized reinforcement, probabilistic reinforcement, and contingency-based delays;…

Self-regulated learning (SRL) is an essential skill to achieve one's learning goals. This is particularly true for online learning environments (OLEs) where the support system is often limited compared to a traditional classroom setting. Likewise, existing research has found that learners often struggle to adapt their behaviour to the…

Sydney J. Berkman – ProQuest LLC, 2022
Many individuals with autism spectrum disorder do not demonstrate observational learning (OL), a skill that aids in learning during group instruction. Few studies have evaluated strategies for teaching individuals to engage in OL, and none have evaluated the effects of such strategies on individuals' learning during group instruction. In this…

Dilara Ecem Altun; Serife Yucesoy-Ozkan – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2024
In the study, we compared the effectiveness and efficiency of two error correction (EC) procedures --a model of the correct response (MoCR) and remove and re-present (RRp)--when using discrete trial training (DTT) in teaching to identify the community signs to children with autism spectrum disorder. We also examined the maintenance and…

Ferguson, Julia L.; Milne, Christine M. – International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2023
Leaf and colleagues (2016) provided a definition and description of progressive applied behavior analysis (ABA) in the context of autism treatment in which a behavior analyst takes a structured, yet flexible, approach to treatment that is responsive to the learner and includes on-going, in-the-moment analysis of teaching. Since Leaf and…

Kenneth Lloyd Reimer – International Journal for Talent Development and Creativity, 2024
This paper highlights a (2022) study conducted in a Canadian school division with middle school teachers. The purpose of this study was to learn what middle school teachers did to positively connect with their students. Due to COVID-related concerns, four participants were interviewed individually via zoom and asked to share strategies that they…

Kelly M. Schieltz; David P. Wacker; Alyssa N. Suess; Jessica E. Graber; Nicole H. Lustig; Jessica Detrick – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2020
The prevalence of students with behavioral problems who also have learning problems has been reported to be as high as 50% (Glassberg et al. "Behavioral Disorders," 25, 9-21, 1999). In the current study, we progressively evaluated the effects of positive reinforcement, instructional strategies, and, if needed, negative reinforcement on…

John W. Maag; Edward J. Daly III – Beyond Behavior, 2024
Differential negative reinforcement of alternative behavior is a technique in which students can escape a portion of a task they perceive to be unpleasant by reaching a predetermined criterion. In this article, we define the negative reinforcement trap and review research on differential negative reinforcement of alternative behavior. We then…

Meg Lipper; Leif K. Albright; Kenneth Reeve; Sharon Reeve; April Kisamore; Antonios Varelas – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2024
The present study evaluated the use of computerized equivalence-based instruction (EBI) to teach classes representing schedules of reinforcement to staff members. Four, 5-member classes representing fixed ratio, fixed interval, variable ratio, and variable interval schedules of reinforcement were taught. The participants were 16 staff members…

Vassoyan, Jean; Vie, Jill-Jênn – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2023
Adaptive learning is an area of educational technology that consists in delivering personalized learning experiences to address the unique needs of each learner. An important subfield of adaptive learning is learning path personalization: it aims at designing systems that recommend sequences of educational activities to maximize students' learning…

Todt, Mollie J.; Barton, Erin E.; Ledford, Jennifer R.; Robinson, Gabriela N.; Skiba, Emma B. – Journal of Early Intervention, 2023
Researchers have identified effective instructional strategies for teaching peer imitation, including embedded classroom-based interventions. However, there is a dearth of strategies that have been effective for teaching generalization of imitation skills to novel contexts. Building on previous research, we examined the use of progressive time…
