General CEU: Teaching Children with Autism to Tact Private Events Based on Public Accompaniments

Teaching Children with Autism to Tact Private Events Based on Public Accompaniments becomes clinically important the moment a team has to turn good intentions into reliable action inside language assessment, teaching sessions, caregiver coaching, and natural communication routines. In Teaching Children with Autism to Tact Private Events Based on Public Accompaniments, for this course, the practical stakes show up in clearer case conceptualization, better instructional targets, and stronger generalization, not in abstract discussion alone.

Course Description

Verbal behavior such as tacting may be helpful in teaching individuals with ASD to talk about sensations. 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).

What You'll Learn

  1. Identify the behavioral processes involved in teaching individuals with ASD to tact private events.
  2. Describe how public accompaniments and stimulus generalization are used to establish tacting of internal states.
  3. Apply prompt fading and transfer of stimulus control procedures to teach novel tacting responses.
