Abstract

Video modeling interventions have been recognized as effective and evidence-based behavioral interventions for individuals with autism spectrum disorders; however, the effectiveness of different types of video modeling is still being explored. The present study examined the effectiveness of point of view video modeling compared to video self-modeling using a novel object retrieval task. A multiple baseline, across participants research design was used to assess four, three to four-year-old children with a primary diagnosis of autism. Although both forms of video modeling were successful in teaching the task to all of the participants, point of view video modeling resulted in faster acquisition. Possible explanations for the difference in effectiveness between the models are discussed.
