The behavior intervention group received about 10 hours of intervention pr week, range from 8 to 15 hours. Whereas earlier studies have shown little effect of this amount of hours for children with autism, using ABA intervention based om Lovaas studies. The measures are collected using standarized test for IQ (Baylay and Stanford-Binet) and Adaptive Behavior (Vineland).

I have not read the full text yet but am interested in the methods and measures used because of some perception of the immutability of IQ. Have you read the full article? If so, do you have any comment on what you found most interesting? Thank you for highlighting this work.
