This presentation will describe how to teach children with autism to ask wh-questions using the ASKED model. This model incorporates verbal behavior principles and demonstrates how environments can be manipulated to encourage question-asking-behavior. Using this research-based model, individuals will learn how to plan individualized question-asking interventions in generalized situations.
- Describe typical language development of wh-question asking behavior
- Explain wh-question asking behavior using the model of Verbal Behavior
- Develop an individualized plan for a young child with autism to learn to ask a wh-question
- Use the ASKED model to implement the plan and collect data for further plan development
- Teach the wh-questions in order of typical language
- Demonstrate ability to develop and use an individualized prompt system related to your child's form of communication and to the question being taught
