  • Title: Using multiple-exemplar training to teach a generalized repertoire of sharing to children with autism.
    Author: Marzullo-Kerth D, Reeve SA, Reeve KF, Townsend DB.
    Journal: J Appl Behav Anal; 2011; 44(2):279-94. PubMed ID: 21709784.
    Abstract:
    The current study examined the utility of multiple-exemplar training to teach children with autism to share. Stimuli from 3 of 4 categories were trained using a treatment package of video modeling, prompting, and reinforcement. Offers to share increased for all 3 children following the introduction of treatment, with evidence of skill maintenance. In addition, within-stimulus-category generalization of sharing was evident for all participants, although only 1 participant demonstrated across-category generalization of sharing. Offers to share occurred in a novel setting, with familiar and novel stimuli, and in the presence of novel adults and peers for all participants during posttreatment probes.
