A peer-initiation training procedure was implemented across multiple peer trainers to investigate social interactions between two severely withdrawn autistic children (8 and 10-years-old) and their nonhandicapped peers. Spontaneous interactions increased substantially for one subject and slightly for the other. (Author/DB)
