Lancioni, Giulio E.; Singh, Nirbhay N.; O'Reilly, Mark F.; Oliva, Doretta
Research in Developmental Disabilities, v24 n2 p139-48 Mar-Apr 2003
This study assessed a microswitch-based program in which three request and one choice microswitches were used for two participants with multiple disabilities. Each request switch was linked to different stimulation opportunities. Both participants learned to use the microswitches very rapidly. Responding levels were high during intervention and the post-intervention checks carried out in the participants' daily contexts. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
