Abstrakt: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may have difficulty engaging in cooperative communication during classroom learning center activities with peers. This study examined the effects of using an activity schedule intervention package on the rate of contextually appropriate cooperative exchanges for children with ASD during classroom learning centers. In this study, children with ASD worked together in participant partnerships to complete learning center activities. A nonconcurrent multiple baseline across participant partnerships with embedded reversal components was used to examine the effects of the activity schedule intervention package. All participant partnerships demonstrated increased cooperative vocal exchanges and engaged in some untrained exchanges. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.
