In this pilot feasibility study, we tested the efficacy of practitioner-implemented, peer-mediated Pivotal Response Training (PRT) with 11 elementary and middle school students with ASD. Participants were randomly assigned to a treatment or control group. We measured outcomes at multiple time points, and analyzed data using multi-level modeling with time nested within student. We demonstrated large and statistically significant increases in peer interaction (d = 1.13). Appropriate play with peers also increased substantially (d = 0.89). Practitioners and students provided positive feedback. These findings suggest school staff can feasibly facilitate peer-implemented PRT that improves social outcomes for students with ASD at recess.

Comparing Children with ASD and Their Peers’ Growth in Print Knowledge / Jaclyn M. DYNIA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-7 (July 2016)

An increased focus on emergent literacy skills—particularly print knowledge—might improve later reading outcomes. We analyzed longitudinal measures of print knowledge (i.e., alphabet knowledge and print-concept knowledge) for 35 preschoolers with ASD relative to a sample of 35 typically developing peers. Through multilevel growth curve analysis, we found that relative to their peers, children with ASD had comparable alphabet knowledge, lower print-concept knowledge, and acquired both skills at a similar rate. These findings suggest that children with ASD are unlikely to acquire print-concept knowledge commensurate to their peers without an increased emphasis on high-quality instruction that targets this skill.

Early childhood special education teachers’ use of evidence-based practices with children with autism spectrum disorder / Jaclyn M. DYNIA in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 77 (September 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 77 (September 2020) . - 101606 Titre : Early childhood special education teachers’ use of evidence-based practices with children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jaclyn M. DYNIA, Auteur ; Katherine M. WALTON, Auteur ; Matthew E. BROCK, Auteur ; Gabrielle TIEDE, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101606 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Evidence-based practice  ASD  Preschool Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Past research shows a gap between identification of evidence-based practices (EBP) for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and adoption of those EBP by classroom teachers. However, few studies have examined EBP use in preschool classrooms. Method We surveyed 45 preschool teachers serving children with ASD regarding their intervention priorities, instructional approaches, confidence, and desire for professional development. Open-ended responses regarding instructional approaches were coded by the research team for whether they reflected use of specified identified EBP. Results Communication, social skills, and challenging behavior were rated as the top priorities for intervention. Nearly all teachers reported using at least one EBP. The most commonly reported EBP included visual supports, behavioral strategies, and social narratives. Nearly half of teachers reported using sensory-related strategies, which are not EBP. Surprisingly, teacher confidence and belief that they were using EBP were not significantly related to desire for professional development. Conclusions These findings provide insight into the research-to-practice gap for educating young children with ASD, and have the potential to help teacher educators refine their efforts to close this gap.

Effects of Delayed Video-Based Feedback and Observing Feedback on Paraprofessional Implementation of Evidence-Based Practices for Students With Severe Disabilities / Matthew E. BROCK in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 35-3 (September 2020)

We used a multiple baseline across participants design with six paraprofessionals who taught elementary students with severe disabilities to test the efficacy of two innovations designed to improve the feasibility of delivering feedback. We found a functional relation between delayed, video-based performance feedback and paraprofessional implementation fidelity of two systematic prompting strategies. Observing a colleague receive feedback did result in some improvement, but did not enable all paraprofessionals to meet the training criterion. These findings suggest that delayed, video-based feedback is an effective and feasible training tool, but only observing a colleague receive feedback might be insufficient.

Efficacy of a Teacher Training a Paraprofessional to Promote Communication for a Student With Autism and Complex Communication Needs / Lauryn WERMER in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 33-4 (December 2018)

SEAMAN, Auteur Année de publication : 2018 Article en page(s) : p.217-226 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : staff training  augmentative/alternative communication  paraprofessionals  autism  performance feedback Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Students with complex communication needs require well-designed supports to communicate effectively in school settings. Although paraprofessionals are often charged with supporting these students, they are rarely trained in how to promote communication, and there is limited research on how they might be trained. In this study, we used a multiple baseline across behaviors design to test the efficacy of a teacher-implemented training package to train a paraprofessional to provide opportunities for an elementary student with autism to respond, set up opportunities for her to initiate, and implement a systematic prompting hierarchy. We demonstrated a functional relation between the teacher-implemented training and paraprofessional acquisition of the strategies, and paraprofessional implementation coincided with increased student communication. This study replicates previous findings that paraprofessionals can be trained to implement evidence-based practices to promote use of alternative/augmentative communication, and extends this literature by demonstrating that a classroom teacher can deliver paraprofessional training effectively.
