We evaluated the effects of listener training on the emergence of categorization and speaker behavior (i.e., tacts) using a nonconcurrent multiple baseline design. Four children with autism learned to select pictures given their dictated category names. We assessed whether they could match and tact pictures by category. After training, 3 participants tacted and categorized all pictures, and 1 participant failed both tests. After tact training, this participant categorized. These results suggest that listener training may be an efficient way to produce speaker behavior and categorization in children who have been diagnosed with autism.
我们使用非同期多项基线设计评估了听众训练对分类和说话者行为（即，语素）出现的影响。四个自闭症儿童学习了根据规定的类别名称选择图片。我们评估了他们是否可以按类别匹配和说出图片。培训后，有 3 名参与者可以按类别进行语素和分类，而 1 名参与者两项测试都失败了。语素训练后，这名参与者进行了分类。这些结果表明，听众训练可能是一种有效的方法，可以在被诊断患有自闭症的儿童中产生说话者行为和分类。
