摘要
A time delay procedure was used to teach 3 children with autism co ask the question ''What's that?'' when novel stimuli were presented during an instructional task. Once the ability to ask the question was acquired, the children's ability to learn novel information by asking the question was assessed. The children were then taught to ask the question within a less structured context. Ail three studies used a multiple baseline across participants. Generalization was assessed in a different room, to a new person, and to novel stimuli. Ail of the children learned to ask the question within the instructional context, while on a walk in the school building, and to request information about three-dimensional objects. The acquisition of novel information was consistent for receptive and expressive tests for 2 of the children, with varied results for the 3rd. These studies indicate that children with autism can be taught to ask questions that lead to the acquisition of new information.
