Use of a Level System to Improve Synchronous Engagement
Recorded in 2023
Level systems have been described as a framework which can be used to shape behavior. Level systems are commonly implemented within school settings. Recently there has been some controversy over the use of a level system and the potential negative side effects associated with the procedure. In this study we evaluated the implementation of a level system to increase synchronous engagement for children diagnosed with autism. Dr. Leaf will describe the details and results of the study and provide clinical implications for those who work with autistic individuals.
