This study assessed whether two persons with developmental disabilities would be able to actively perform simple occupational activities by controlling their favorite environmental stimulation using battery-free wireless mice with a newly developed object location detection program (OLDP, i.e., a new software program turning a battery-free wireless mouse into an object location detector). This study was performed according to an ABAB design, in which A represented the baseline and B represented intervention phases. Data showed that both participants significantly increased their target response (performing simple occupational activities) to activate the control system to produce environmental stimulation during the intervention phases. Practical and developmental implications of the findings are discussed.
本研究评估了两名发展障碍者是否能够通过使用带有新开发的物体位置检测程序（OLDP，即把无电池无线鼠标变成物体位置探测器的新软件程序）的无电池无线鼠标来主动控制他们喜欢的环境刺激，从而进行简单的职业活动。本研究采用 ABAB 设计进行，其中 A 代表基线期，B 代表干预期。数据显示，两名参与者在干预期都显著增加了他们的目标反应（进行简单的职业活动），以激活控制系统来产生环境刺激。讨论了研究结果的实际意义和发展意义。
