ABA | autism | peer | pivotal response training | play | school | social skills
Peers and teachers can join together to teach social skills to children with autism during recess.
This study looked at whether or not a type of applied behavior analysis (pivotal response training) could be used to teach play skills to children with autism. The therapy plan used peers to teach social skills during recess play time. The program involved peers (two peers per child with autism) who were trained to give responses. The training of peers and teachers took two weeks. Both children in the study improved their social skills during recess time.
