iPad® Video Prompting to Teach Cooking Tasks to Korean American Adolescents With Autism Spectrum Disorder
Sunyoung Kim, Veronica Y. Kang
Abstract
In response to the growing necessity for considering the cultural and contextual needs of youth with disabilities in experimental studies, this study examines the effectiveness of an intervention package consisting of video prompting with a system of least prompts and reinforcement on Korean American adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. Through the replication of procedures used in a study by Mechling et al. (2008), the current study examined the effects of self-directed video prompting with a system of least prompts and verbal praise on completion of three preferred cooking tasks by three Korean American male adolescents with autism spectrum disorder. A single-case multiple probe design replicated across three cooking tasks was used. Results indicated the correct completion of multi-step cooking tasks increased with the intervention package and was maintained seven weeks following intervention across three participants. Discussion and implications for future research and practice are presented.
