A common concern reported by parents of children with ASD is that their child does not communicate that they are not feeling well. The current literature has shown that teaching individuals to tact various targets (i.e., novel body parts and novel objects) was effective when using prompt fading (i.e., echoic prompt and constant time delay prompts). This event will review the analysis of Skinner's verbal behavior and other research, which has taught individuals with ASD to tact private events through public accompaniment and stimulus generalization (i.e., teaching various targets, novel body parts, novel objects, and novel sensations).
