This review investigated the quality of the design and evidence of the literature base and determined the state of the evidence base related to interventions for improving daily living skills of individuals with ASD. Included studies were evaluated to determine the overall quality of the evidence for each design within each article, based on the What Works Clearinghouse standards for single-case experimental design (Kratochwill et al. 2010), adapted by Maggin et al. (Remedial Spec Educ 34(1):44–58, 2013. doi:10.1177/0741932511435176). As a result, video modeling was found to be an evidence-based practice. Limitations and implications for future research and for practitioners are discussed.

A review of the quality of primary caregiver-implemented communication intervention research for children with ASD / Ee Rea HONG in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 25 (May 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 25 (May 2016) . - p.122-136 Titre : A review of the quality of primary caregiver-implemented communication intervention research for children with ASD Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ee Rea HONG, Auteur ; Jennifer B. GANZ, Auteur ; Leslie NEELY, Auteur ; Stephanie GEROW, Auteur ; Jennifer NINCI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.122-136 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Communication behaviors  Caregiver  Single-case research  Evidence-based practice  Quality of research  What Works Clearinghouse Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : AbstractBackground Most children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) spend most of their waking hours at home with their caregivers; thus, involving caregivers in interventions may increase communication interaction opportunities across time and settings. Method In this review, an analysis of the quality of the research on communication interventions implemented or mediated by caregivers of children with ASD was conducted based on the What Works Clearinghouse guidelines (Kratochwill et al., 2010) and adapted by Maggin et al. (2013). Results About one-third of studies included in this review were found to meet the design standards, indicating that those studies utilized a high quality of research design. The studies that failed to meet the design standards were primarily those that lacked sufficient interobserver agreement data collected in each condition, thus, not meeting the minimum quality thresholds. To evaluate an overall effectiveness, a total of 31 single-case experiments were evaluated with the evidence standards. As a result, about half of the experiments were found to have either strong or moderate evidence of an effect. Conclusions The findings in this review suggest issues that need to be addressed in the field related to quality of designs in single-case research on primary caregiver-implemented communication interventions for children with ASD. Limitations and implications for future research and for practitioners are discussed.

Teaching caregivers to implement an augmentative and alternative communication intervention to an adult with ASD / Ee Rea HONG in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8-5 (May 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 8-5 (May 2014) . - p.570-580 Titre : Teaching caregivers to implement an augmentative and alternative communication intervention to an adult with ASD Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ee Rea HONG, Auteur ; Jennifer B. GANZ, Auteur ; Whitney GILLILAND, Auteur ; Jennifer NINCI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.570-580 Mots-clés : Adult with autism  Complex communication needs  Tap to Talk™ application  Primary caregivers  AAC implementation  Single-case research Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many researchers have investigated the effectiveness of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) systems on improving communication skills of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and communication complex needs (CCN); however, few studies included adults with ASD. Also, there is a lack of research on primary caregiver implemented interventions with high treatment fidelity although primary caregiver-implemented interventions have been used effectively with adults with ASD and their families. This study investigated the accuracy of primary caregivers’ implementation of a tablet-computer based AAC system while they were providing instruction to an adult with ASD. Also, independent use of AAC system of the participant was examined. We implemented a multiple probe design across three instructional coaching steps to examine the accuracy of the caregivers’ AAC implementation. One adult with autism and CCN and his four primary caregivers participated in this study, twice a week for seven weeks. Both visual and statistical analyses were utilized. Results indicated that, with instructional coaching, all of the caregivers were able to implement the procedures of the AAC mode with the participant accurately, as demonstrated via visual inspection and statistical analyses. Nevertheless, there was little improvement in the participant's independent use of the AAC mode. Limitations and suggestions for future researchers are discussed.
