A comparison of electronic to traditional pen-and-paper data collection in discrete trial training for children with autism / Jonathan TARBOX in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 4-1 (January-March 2010)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 4-1 (January-March 2010) . - p.65-75 Titre : A comparison of electronic to traditional pen-and-paper data collection in discrete trial training for children with autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jonathan TARBOX, Auteur ; Doreen GRANPEESHEH, Auteur ; Arthur E. WILKE, Auteur ; Rachel S. FINDEL-PYLES, Auteur ; Ryan M. BERGSTROM, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.65-75 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Descriptors Electronic-data-collection Discrete-trial-training Autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is considerable empirical evidence that demonstrates that early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) produces substantial improvements in young children with autism. A central feature of this treatment approach is the reliance on continuous measurement of child performance during all treatment hours (20–40 h per week) to ensure an objective and quantitative analysis of behavior. Pen-and-paper data collection is standard practice in service delivery agencies. An alternative is to collect data via an electronic format, however little research has been done on electronic data collection in these settings. The purpose of this study was to compare mTrial®, a program that allows therapists to record, store, and report discrete trial and other behavior data for students on a personal data assistant, to traditional pen-and-paper data, in terms of the accuracy of data collected and the time required to do it. Results suggest that both formats are of approximately equal accuracy but that traditional data collection is faster. Implications of the two data collection methods for data storage and analysis are also discussed.

A comprehensive evaluation of language for early behavioral intervention programs: The reliability of the SKILLS Language Index / Dennis R. DIXON in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 5-1 (January-March 2011)

However, the content of EIBI programs presumably varies considerably and may not always be tailored to the individual strengths and deficits of each child. Few assessment tools exist (and none have been psychometrically evaluated) which attempt to identify appropriate targets for treatment in EIBI programs. The current study evaluated the reliability of the subscales of the SKILLS Language Index, an assessment tool for EIBI programs. Results demonstrated excellent internal consistency, inter-rater, and test-retest reliability.

Indirect functional assessment of stereotypy in children with autism spectrum disorders / Arthur E. WILKE in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-2 (April-June 2012)

It is common for clinicians to assume that repetitive behaviors are maintained by automatic reinforcement but, as with any challenging behavior, the function of stereotypy should not be assumed based on its topography. Previous research on the functional assessment of stereotypy has produced mixed results, and most previous studies on the functional assessment of stereotypy in children with ASD have included small sample sizes, so more research in this area is warranted. In the current study, indirect functional assessments consisting of the questions about behavioral function (QABF) were conducted across 53 children and adolescents with ASD. The QABF produced interpretable results in a high percentage of cases and 90% of the stereotypic behavior appeared to be maintained by automatic reinforcement.

Randomized evaluation of a web-based tool for designing function-based behavioral intervention plans / Jonathan TARBOX in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7-12 (December 2013)

The creation of good-quality behavior intervention plans is critical to decreasing challenging behaviors but little previous research has developed or evaluated practical tools for designing intervention plans. This study consisted of a randomized evaluation of a web-based tool designed to aid clinicians in choosing treatment procedures for inclusion in behavior intervention plans. The effects of the tool were assessed on the inclusion of three types of intervention components that likely contribute to the quality of intervention plans: (1) function-based intervention components, (2) evidence-based intervention components, and (3) non-punishment-based intervention components. Use of the web-based behavior intervention plan builder produced a statistically significant increase in the inclusion of function-based intervention components but no statistically significant effect was observed on the other two measures. Results are discussed in terms of the implications for improving the quality of behavior intervention plans, as well as the dissemination of knowledge of best practices in behavioral intervention.

Randomized trial of hyperbaric oxygen therapy for children with autism / Doreen GRANPEESHEH in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 4-2 (April-June 2010)

While numerous treatments for ASDs have been proposed, very few have been subjected to rigorous scientific investigation. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been recently popularized as a treatment for the symptoms of ASDs. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that HBOT would have a beneficial effect on ASD symptoms in the context of a double-blind placebo-controlled trial. This randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial compared HBOT used to deliver 24% oxygen at 1.3 atmospheric pressure (n = 18) to placebo (n = 16) in children with Autistic Disorder. Both direct observational measures of behaviors symptomatic of autism and standardized psychological assessments were used to evaluate the effects of the treatment. No differences were detected between HBOT and placebo groups across any of the outcome measures. The present study demonstrates that HBOT delivered at 24% oxygen at 1.3 atmospheric pressure does not result in a clinically significant improvement of the symptoms of Autistic Disorder.
