Multiple Probe

The purpose of this study is to examine effectiveness of video modelling for teaching daily life skills to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Multiple probe across subjects design from single subject research model has used as a research method. It has found that video modelling is effective on teaching common life skills to individuals with ASD. It has also demonstrated that these skills become permanent in subjects’ lives and they could generalise these skills at other times with various equipment and in different contexts. Data are collected according to achieve each skill step in cooking fried eggs with garlic sausage and cooking pasta skill analysis. In future researches, teaching different daily life skills by using video modelling could be tested. Keywords: Autism, cooking fried eggs, cooking pasta, daily life skills, video modelling.

Processing Differences

Purpose The aim of this research study was to examine common practices of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) who work with children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with respect to whether or not SLPs consider processing differences in ASD or the effects of input during their instruction. Method Following a qualitative research method, how SLPs instruct and present augmentative and alternative communication systems to individuals with ASD, their rationale for method selection, and their perception of the efficacy of selected interventions were probed. Semistructured interviews were conducted as part of an in-depth case report with content analysis. Results Based on completed interviews, 4 primary themes were identified: (a) instructional method , (b) input provided , (c) decision-making process , and (d) perceived efficacy of treatment . Additionally, one secondary theme, training and education received , was identified . Conclusions Clinicians reported making decisions based on the needs of the child; however, they also reported making decisions based on the diagnostic category that characterized the child (i.e., ASD). The use of modeling when teaching augmentative and alternative communication to individuals with ASD emerged as a theme, but variations in the method of modeling were noted. SLPs did not report regularly considering processing differences in ASD, nor did they consider the effects of input during instruction.
