An Intervention Study Using PRT-based Self-management Program To Improve The Active Sharing Behavior Of Autistic Children

In recent years,the number of children with autism has increased dramatically,and the country has paid more and more attention to the treatment of children with autism.Social disorders,as the core obstacles of autistic children,have also received attention.Active sharing behavior,as one of the prosocial behaviors,is of great significance to children's social development.In order for autistic children to take the initiative to properly socialize without the reminder of teachers and peers,researchers wish to train autistic children to have a certain self-management ability.In this study,a school-aged autistic child was used as the intervention subject.Specifically,the cross-behavior multi-detection design in the single-subject experimental method was used.The PRT-based self-management program was used as the independent variable.The three target behaviors of "invite to play puzzle" and "active praise" are the dependent variables.The whole experiment went through three stages: the baseline period,the expectation period,and the maintenance period,with a total duration of 74 days,of which the participants were intervened for 25 minutes each during the intervention period.The experiment used observation method to collect data,and processed the data through visual data analysis and Tau-U calculation method.At the same time,the observer consistency coefficient and intervention loyalty were calculated to ensure the reliability and validity of the experiment.This study finally reached the following conclusions:Firstly,children with autism in school age can effectively master self-management procedures;Secondly,PRT-based self-management programs can effectively improve the active sharing behavior of autistic children.It is suggested that in the process of cultivating autistic children's sharing behavior,they should give full play to their initiative and explore the possibility of self-management.Specifically: Firstly,to implement the curriculum of self-management program teaching based on PRT.Secondly,to create a home-school push for children's self-management model.Thirdly,to focus on the impact of shared preferences on sharing behavior.Then,pay attention to the role of motivation components in intervention studies for special children.
