Abstrakt: Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID) often have deficits in independent living skills. One way to improve skills in this area is through the use of video modeling (VM) interventions. The purpose of the study was to compare the effects of two VM interventions and a third non-video-based intervention on the independent living skills of four students with ASD and/or ID. Using an adapted alternating treatments design, we investigated the comparative effects of VM plus prompting and reinforcement (VM + P&R), continuous video modeling (CVM) plus prompting and reinforcement (CVM + P&R), and prompting and reinforcement alone (P&R). Results indicated that two students responded well to both VM + P&R and P&R, while CVM + P&R was most effective for one student. For the last student, all interventions had only minimal effects on target skill performance, and results were inconclusive. Overall, students required fewer adult-delivered prompts with VM + P&R and/or CVM + P&R, but P&R required less preparation and instructional time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
