Intensive Behavioral Treatment for Children With Autism: 4 Year Outcome
and Predictors by Glen O. Sallows and Tamlynn D. Graupener (Wisconsin Early
Autism Project (Madison)自閉症兒童密集式行為訓練:
4年
成果及預測因子
 The findings demonstrated that many children with autism could
make dramatic improvement, even achieve “normalcy” and succeeding
in regular education classrooms, and many researchers now agree that
intensive behavioral treatment can result in substantial gains for a large
proportion of children研究顯示許多自閉症兒童有明顯
的改善,甚至回復〝正常〞及重返主流學校,許
多研究人員均同意密集式行為訓練,對治療大部
份兒童均有顯注的改善。
A comparison of intensive behavior analytic and
eclectic treatments for young children with autism
by J.S. Howard et al. (Research in Developmental Disabilities)自閉症兒童
密集式行為訓練及傳統特教式訓練比較研究
 The IBT group (intensive behavior analytic intervention; 1:1 adult:child ratio,
25–40 h per week) had higher mean standard scores in all skill domains than
the AP (public special education classrooms; 1:1 or 1:2 ratio, 30 h per week)and
GP (non-intensive public early intervention programs; small groups, 15 h per
week)groups. The differences were statistically significant for all domains
except motor skills. These findings are consistent with other research showing
that IBT is considerably more efficacious than ‘‘eclectic’’ intervention.密集式
行為訓練(IBT) – (1對1每周25-40小時),它在所有技巧範圍的中
位數成績均高於(AP)公立特殊教育學校的學生– ( 1對1或1對2 ,
每周30小時) ,或(GP)普通早期干預– (非密集式公立早期干預,
小組式訓練,每周15小時) 。研究結果顯示在所有範圍除大肌肉
技巧外,均有統計學認可的重要性。這項研究結果和其他研究
都一致認同 (IBT)是比較傳統特教式訓練有成效。
Effective Treatment 有效治療
 Biomedical Treatment/ Intervention 生物醫學治療/干預
can help develop these areas
可以有下列功效
消減觸發因素
 Stabilize condition 穩定狀況
 Achieve health 改善身體健康
 Eliminate triggers
 Ensure the child’s Maximum Learning Potential
兒童最大的學習潛能
維持
Effective Treatment 有效治療
 Early Intervention (ABA) 早期干預 (ABA)
Because the brain can learn to compensate and develop when it’s young
兒童腦部在早期有補償及再發展的學習能力
 Increase Skills 增強技巧
 Decrease Maladaptive Behaviors 減少不適應的行為
 Generalize to Daily Living 類化至 (應用於) 日常生活
AUTISM RECOVERY NETWORK (ARN)
自閉症復康網絡 www.autismrec.net
 ARN is established, since 2005, by parents and professionals who are
committed in helping kids with autism and developmental delays. ARN於
2005由一群家長及專業人士年成立,目的為幫助自閉症及
相關發展障礙兒童
 ARN is the ONLY service provider of Verbal Behavior (VB) in Asia. Our
program is certified by Dr. James Partington, founder of Behavior Analysts of
the USA and one of the foremost experts on VB based teaching programs. All
of our therapists are trained under his esteemed program.香港ARN是亞
洲區唯一提供行為語言(BV)訓練的機構,其訓練獲美國
James Partington博士認証,Partington博士是美國行為分
析訓練師學會創辦人,他亦是最早研發 行為語言(BV)訓練
課程的專家,香港ARN的治療師均有參與上述課程
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
應用行為分析
• an intensive, structured teaching program密集及結構式訓練課程
• Lessons or skills to be taught are broken down into their simplest elements/
form教授的課堂或技巧細分至最基本的元素或形式
• teach language skills based on the premise that receptive language should be
developed prior to expressive language教授語言技巧的原則,是先學習接
受性語言,再學習表達性語言。
• Correct responses and behaviors are rewarded with lots of positive
reinforcement對正確的回應或行為表現,提供大量正面獎勵物作獎勵。
• When incorrect responses occur, they are ignored and appropriate responses
are prompted and rewarded對不正確的回應,不予關注;對正確的回應
給予即時回應及獎勵。
Example of ABA ABA 的例子
 child may be taught to say the word “cookie” but not necessarily when the child
wants a cookie at that moment當兒童被教授〝曲奇餅〞時,他當時不一
定希望吃曲奇餅。
 concept of “cookie” may be considered mastered when a child can point to a
cookie and say cookie when shown a cookie當兒童能指認〝曲奇餅〞時能
說出曲奇餅,便是能掌握〝曲奇餅〞這個概念。
 As the child masters the lesson, expectation are raised and primary reinforcers
(like food) are replaced with social reinforcers (hugs, praise, tickles, etc.)當兒
童能掌握課堂內容,便要提升對他的祈望,用社交性獎勵物(例如:擁
抱、口頭讚賞、身體接觸等)代替原始性獎勵物(食物)
Verbal Behavior (VB) 語言性行為
 Focus on teaching specific components of Expressive Language (mands,
receptive, imitation, echoics, tact, intraverbal, receptive identification by
function/feature/class [RFFC], textual and writing)集中教授表達性語言
的重要原素(要求性、接受性、模仿性、回應性、tact 、跨
語言性、能分辨功能的接受性/特色/ RFFC ,內文式及書
寫文字) 。
 VB uses language to capture a child’s motivation to develop a connection
VB運用語言幫助兒
童掌握動機,並建立文字及其代表的概念。
between the value of the word and the word itself.
 VB approach builds on all of the ABA research but also enhances a child’s
VB訓練模式建基於應用行為分
析研究結果,同時亦增強兒童學習功能性語言。
ability to learn functional language
Verbal Behavior (VB) 語言性行為
 Language is treated as a behavior that can be shaped
and reinforced 。語言是一種行為,可以被塑造及被增
強。
 It focuses in the different behavioral classification
of language 。VB聚焦於語言性行為的分類。
Example of VB 語言性行為的例子
 a child is first taught to ask for a “cookie” any way they can (vocally, sign
language, etc.) only when they actually want a cookie. We capture that desire
for a cookie and turn it into the lesson that the word (or sign) for a cookie will
get you what you want 。首先教授兒童在真正想吃曲奇餅
時,以任何方式要求曲奇餅(語言、手勢等) ,我
們透過兒童希望吃曲奇餅的動機,轉化成學習課
堂,讓兒童明白曲奇餅這個字 (或符號)可以達成
他所想吃曲奇餅的事。
Behavioral Classification of Language
語言性行為的分類

Mand- asking for what you want (e.g. Ask for a cookie when it is
wanted; “I want to eat chips”)要求性 -提出你的要求(例如:想吃曲奇
餅時說出你的要求 〝我想吃薯片〞 。

Imitation- copying what was observed (e.g. Repeating someone’s
motor movement, such as raise arms)模仿性 -重覆觀察時所得行為(重
覆他人的大肌肉動作,例如:舉高雙手、

Echoic- vocal imitation (e.g. Repeating exactly what you hear) 鸚鵡學
舌 -重覆他人的語言 (例如:重覆他人的語句)

Receptive- non-verbally following instructions or complying with the
requests of others回應性 - 非語言性地服從或依照他人的要求或指示

Tact- verbally identifying objects, actions, events, etc.以語名物 -用口
語分辨不同物件、行為及事件。
Behavioral Classification of Language
語言性行為的分類

RFFC- receptively identifying specific items when given some description
(features, functions, class) (e.g. Select a cookie when asked “ What has
chocolate chips?” “What do you eat?” “Find the food”) RFFC -當被給予某
些描述(特色、功能及分類)並以回應性分辨物件 (例如:甚麼物件表層有
朱古力?你愛吃甚麼?能在這堆食物中找出你最愛吃的?)

Intraverbal- answering questions or conversations where your words are
controlled by other words (e.g. Answer questions about the cookie when it
is not present)跨語言性 -在回覆或與人談話時所用的字眼受其他詞句語控
制住(例如:在沒有曲奇餅實物時回答有關曲奇餅的問題) 。

Textual- reading written words內文性 -閱讀書寫式的文字

Writing- writing and spelling words when spoken to you 書寫性 -當讀出
某字時書寫該字句。
Behavioral Classification of Language
語言性行為的分類

In addition, Natural Environment Teaching (NET) is also
part of Verbal Behavior which capitalizes on the
opportunities to conduct natural language training in the
context of everyday activities. Many different types of
language trials conducted within an activity using naturallyoccurring reinforcers. (NET)=真實環境教學是語
言性行為的其中一部份,它運用兒童日常
生活的內容,作真實環境教學,不同型式
的語言操練是運用真實的獎勵物。

Our Program includes: 服務種類
 Home-based therapy session: The therapy is provided in the natural
environment that will allow the child the opportunity to use and master the
skills acquired through therapy-helping to facilitate generalization.家居式訓
練 -兒童在日常生活中有機會應用及學會相關技巧,並應用於日常生活
中。
 Each child’s therapy program is customized to address his or her specific area(s)
of concern. The focus of our program, particularly in case of younger children,
is on development of speech and language, conceptual and academic skills, as
well as promoting play and social skills. As the child progresses, the emphasis
shifts towards practical knowledge as well as adaptive skills.依照每位兒童的
不同需要訂定訓練內容,在年齡較少的兒童學習重點,是發展對話及
語言,學術及概念性能力,同時兼顧遊戲及社交能力;當兒童日漸成
長,訓練的重點轉移往實際應用知識和適應性能力。
 The child’s progress is evaluated based on the data gathered by
the therapist. Data collection is an integral part of an effective
intervention program.治療師運用日常記錄作兒童的評
估,資料記錄是有效訓練的重要因素。
 The curriculum is individualized for each child. It builds on
each child’s existing skills and addresses deficits. A 6-month
Individualized Education Plan (IEP) is formulated for each child
based on the Assessment of Basic Language and Learning SkillsRevised (ABLLS-R) (James W. Partington, Ph.D., BCBA).每位
兒童的課程都是『度身訂造』,建基兒童現有能
力並針對其不足,運用ABLLS-R的評估數據,每
位兒童均會訂定一個半年的『個別教育方案(IEP)
(James W. Partington, Ph.D., BCBA).
 The ABLLS-R is a criterion referenced assessment and is an
important tool for analysis and identification of critical learner
skills that are often easily acquired by typically developing
children before they attend Kindergarten. It allows parents and
professionals to identify a child’s skill and skill deficit. It also
provides potential targets for instructors and for tracking of
child’s progress.
