Social Stories may help children learn to change their behavior.
This study looked to see if Social Stories were able to change behavior in a child with autism and if so, whether the child could maintain the changed behavior in different places (generalization). The Social Story was used by teachers. Success was determined as the researcher watched the child and made notes. In the case of this one child, a Social Story was able to help him learn to stop tapping. The child also did a better job of answering questions about the Social Story.
