Assessing Sufficient Social Exemplars for Students with Autism.

Mundschenk, Nancy A.; Sasso, Gary M.

Behavioral Disorders, v21 n1 p62-78 Nov 1995

Three children with autism from a self-contained elementary special education class participated in daily free-play sessions with 15 nondisabled peers, who were sequentially individually trained in appropriate interaction skills. Generalized interactions between students with autism and nontrained peers began in all three groups after the introduction of the third trained peer. (Author/PB)
