The effectiveness of a behavioral skills training (BST) package to teach the implementation of the first three phases of the picture exchange communication system (PECS) was evaluated with 3 adults who had no history teaching any functional communication system. A multiple baseline design across participants was used to evaluate the effectiveness of the training package, which consisted of a video, written and verbal instructions, modeling, rehearsal, and feedback. Results showed significant improvements relative to baseline in a short amount of training time and that skills generalized to a learner with a severe developmental disability. Skills were maintained at 1 month follow-up for 1 participant.
行为技能训练（BST）方案在教授图片交换沟通系统（PECS）的前三个阶段的效果方面，对 3 名没有教授任何功能性沟通系统的成人进行了评估。采用跨参与者的多个基线设计来评估培训包的有效性，培训包包括视频、书面和口头说明、示范、排练和反馈。结果表明，在相对较短的培训时间内，与基线相比有了显著的提高，并且技能可以推广到严重发育障碍的学习者身上。对于 1 名参与者，在 1 个月的随访中，技能得以维持。
