The Effects of Applied Behavior Analysis on Verbal Behavior With Autistic Individuals Using the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VBMAPP) and the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills (ABLLS).

Introduction  Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a fundamental practice-based intervention for treating autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Few studies have directly measured and evaluated the effects of ABA on verbal behaviors, mainly using the Verbal Behavior Milestones Assessment and Placement Program (VBMAPP) and the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning Skills (ABLLS) as outcome measures. This study aims to fill this gap by examining the relationship between ABA interventions and the enhancement of verbal skills, as measured by the VBMAPP and the ABLLS, in a convenience sample of individuals with ASD.

A Descriptive Study on the Impacts of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy on Autistic Individuals Using Parent Testimonies.

Introduction Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) has been influential in treating many physical and psychological ailments, including the symptoms of autism. This current study aims to evaluate HBOT parents' goals and exit interviews describing the positive, negative, or no impacts experienced from the HBOT dives, asking the question, "Are your child's symptoms improving?" Methods Between January 2020 and July 2023, a Class B monoplace hyperbaric chamber (Sechrist 3300H, Sechrist Industries, Inc., Anaheim, California, United States) was used to administer HBOT sessions to patients with autism.
