We examined the effects of manipulating the intensity (i.e., volume) of music on engagement in vocal stereotypy in 2 children with autism. Noncontingent access to music decreased immediate engagement in vocal stereotypy for each participant, but it produced only marginal effects on subsequent engagement in the behavior (i.e., after withdrawal). Manipulating the intensity of music did not produce differential effects on immediate engagement in vocal stereotypy. The implications of the results and applications for future research are discussed.
我们考察了操纵音乐强度(即音量)对 2 名自闭症儿童发声刻板行为参与度的影响。每个参与者都可以非关联地获得音乐,这减少了他们对发声刻板行为的即时参与,但对行为后续的参与(即撤回后)只有轻微的影响。操纵音乐的强度对发声刻板行为的即时参与没有产生不同的影响。讨论了结果的意义和对未来研究的应用。
