This study evaluated and compared the effectiveness of packaged video modelling (VM) and video self-modelling (VSM) interventions to develop conversational behaviors with four adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who used augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). The study was conducted using an alternating treatments design nested within a multiple baseline design. The intervention effect was measured using Robust-Improvement Rate Difference (R-IRD). The results demonstrated that, overall, video-based modelling used in conjunction with a system of least prompts was effective in promoting conversation skills in adolescents with ASD who used AAC. Without the systematic instruction, R-IRD indicated that these techniques yielded only small to moderate intervention effects. The findings demonstrated the necessity of systematic instruction for this group of participants. This investigation provides preliminary evidence to support the use of packaged video-based modelling interventions to develop conversation skills in adolescents with ASD who use AAC systems.
本研究评估和比较了包装视频建模 (VM) 和视频自我建模 (VSM) 干预措施在发展具有自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD) 的使用辅助和替代性沟通 (AAC) 的四个青少年的会话行为方面的有效性。该研究采用嵌套在多个基线设计中的交替治疗设计进行。干预效果使用 Robust-Improvement Rate Difference (R-IRD) 进行测量。结果表明，总体而言，结合最少提示系统使用的基于视频的建模在促进使用 AAC 的 ASD 青少年的会话技能方面是有效的。没有系统的指导，R-IRD 表明这些技术仅产生较小到中等的干预效果。研究结果表明，对于这组参与者，系统指导是必要的。这项研究提供了初步证据，支持使用包装的基于视频的建模干预措施来发展使用 AAC 系统的 ASD 青少年的会话技能。
