An alternating treatments design was employed to compare the effect of stimulus-stimulus pairing, standard echoic training, and a control condition on the vocal behavior of 3 preschoolers with autism. Data were recorded during pre- and postsession observations. During the stimulus-stimulus pairing condition, the experimenter's vocal model was paired with the delivery of a preferred item. During the standard echoic training condition, the experimenter presented a vocal model and delivered a preferred item contingent on an echoic response. During the control condition, the experimenter presented a vocal model and, after a 10-s delay, presented a preferred edible item. Results from the post-session observations during the stimulus-stimulus pairing condition showed an immediate but temporary increase in the target sound for 1 participant only. Implications and suggestions for future research are provided.
采用交替治疗设计，比较刺激-刺激配对、标准模仿训练和对照条件对3名自闭症学龄前儿童发声行为的影响。在课前和课后观察期间记录数据。在刺激-刺激配对条件下，实验者的发声示范与提供一个偏好物品配对。在标准模仿训练条件下，实验者呈现发声示范，并在模仿反应后提供一个偏好物品。在对照条件下，实验者呈现发声示范，10秒延迟后，呈现一个偏好的可食用物品。刺激-刺激配对条件下课后观察的结果显示，只有1名参与者的目标声音立即但暂时增加。提供了对未来研究的启示和建议。
