Résumé :	This study tested whether the effect of treatment intensity or treatment style on children's frequency and maturity of spontaneous communication varied by initial severity of disability. Eighty-seven toddlers with autism spectrum disorders were randomly assigned to either (a) 15?hrs per week of discrete trial teaching (DTT), (b) 25?hrs per week of DTT, (c) 15?hrs per week of a naturalistic developmental behavioral intervention (NDBI), or (d) 25?hrs per week of NDBI. Trained research staff implemented the 1:1 treatments in homes or educational centers over 12?months. We quantified the frequency and maturity of spontaneous communication during monthly 6-min communication samples. We quantified disability severity at Time 1 using the developmental quotient from the Mullen Scales of Early Learning and the total calibrated severity score from the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-second edition. Higher levels of treatment intensity (i.e., more hours per week) benefited frequency and maturity of spontaneous communication growth rate only in children with relatively mild autism symptoms. Other results were nonsignificant.
