Using a Self-as-Model Video Combined With Social Stories™ to Help a Child With Asperger Syndrome Understand Emotions

Using an AB design with generalization, this study sought to
determine the effectiveness of presenting videotaped emotions
and Social Stories™ to teach a 9-year-old child with Asperger
syndrome to recognize and understand emotions in himself
and to generalize them to other situations in his home. Data
collected in the child’s home showed an improvement between
baseline and intervention in the child’s ability to recognize
emotions and understand their occurrence.
