Abstract

<p>The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a telehealth program to teach social communication skills to a preschool child with a developmental disorder. An online developmental and behavioral intervention program was developed and adapted for a preschool child and his mother. All tasks were assigned to the mother via an internet-enabled tablet PC. The experimenter evaluated the performance of the child once a week using online conference system. We conducted a semi-structured interview with the mother to determine the target social communication skills, all of which were verbal behavior. This program targeted social communication with three groups of people: family members, teachers and friends. The program materials for each group included 12 social situations. Multiple baseline across tasks design was used. After completing the program, the correct response rates increased in all tasks. At the one-month follow up, the mother reported that her child’s engagement and correct responses were maintained.</p>
