Procedures for teaching receptive discriminations
In the current number of Research on Autism Spectrum Disorders Gutierrez Jr et al published a study evaluating Discrete Trail Teaching procedures for establishing receptive discriminations. Although the study included quite few participants, and the results are mixed. It is great that the research on elements of EIBI keeps getting attention, so the procedures used are the most effective.
As we know that EIBI benefits many children with autism, there are still much to explore. Both in different behavior analytic procedures, and other elements within EIBI. So this study examining the difference between procedures presenting stimuli in isolation, and in a conditional discrimination procedure contributes to this knowledge. Great!!
