| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study examined the effects of video hero modeling (VHM) on improving avoidance behaviors exhibited by elementary-aged students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Three students with ASD participated in the study. The target behaviors included daily living skills (e.g., drying hands, morning exercises, folding clothes). A multiple-probe design across behaviors revealed that all behaviors improved immediately after VHM was implemented. Additionally, all participants showed verbal behaviors implying motivation to be like the hero (e.g., “I will be like [hero’s name]”). However, some behaviors further improved when the video hero modeling and praise, in which the participant and his hero engaged in the target behavior side by side, were introduced.
