AI Article Synopsis
- The study focused on how Sensory Stories can impact "circle time" behaviors in preschoolers with autism, using a single-system ABA design.
- Out of four participants, three showed improved behaviors after the intervention of reading Sensory Stories one to three times daily.
- The fourth child also displayed improvement, but since their behaviors were already changing during the initial phase, it complicates the results; more research is needed for different age groups.
Article Abstract
This study examined the effectiveness of Sensory Stories on "circle time" behaviors in preschool children with autism. This single-system ABA design with a convenience sample of four participants consisted of one week for each A phase and two weeks for the B phase. The intervention phase (B) consisted of reading a Sensory Story from one to three times per day to each child. Three children had a positive change in their behavior after reading a Sensory Story. The fourth child also showed a positive change in his behavior; however, behaviors were already improving during baseline, making interpretation difficult. Further research is suggested to determine the effectiveness of Sensory Stories with other age groups and populations.
