Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 14-4 (July 2010) . - p.321-348 Titre : Increasing social responsiveness in a child with autism: A comparison of music and non-music interventions Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Emily FINNIGAN, Auteur ; Elizabeth STARR, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.321-348 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study sought to determine the effects of using music and non-music interventions on the social responsive and avoidant behaviours of a preschool child with autism. A single-subject alternating treatment design was used in which two interventions were presented in a similar fashion except for the addition of music during the music condition. Four phases took place: baseline (Phase A), alternating treatments (Phase B), a second treatment phase (Phase C) using the condition that proved to be more effective in Phase B, and follow-up (Phase D). Data were collected over a total of 12 treatment sessions for various social responsive and avoidant behaviours. Results indicated that the music intervention was more effective than the non-music intervention in increasing all three social responsive behaviours in both Phases B and C. Furthermore, no avoidant behaviours were observed during the music condition. It is suggested that the music condition was more motivating for the participant than the non-music condition, resulting in more social responsive behaviours.
