The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of a treatment package comprised of instructions, prompting (manual guidance and modeling), reinforcement (token and behavior-specific praise) and response interruption on the creative play behavior of children with autism. The extent to which creative building behavior would generalize from the original play materials to novel play materials was examined. A pre-test/post-test measure allowed for examination of responding with untrained building materials in the presence of novel instructors in novel settings. The participants were three children with autism ranging in age from 7 to 9 years. A multiple-baseline-across-subjects design was used. During each trial, the participant created a form using the play materials provided. The trial ended when the participant used all b pieces of the material provided or when 3 minutes had passed. During baseline trials, reinforcement was provided contingent upon appropriate sitting behavior during each trial. During training trials, tokens and behavior-specific praise were provided contingent upon the production of any form not previously constructed within that same session. A reinforcer was provided upon every first construction of a form within a session, but subsequent constructions of that same form did not occasion a reinforcer. Data were collected during baseline, training and probe trials on creative responding that occurred within sessions as well as creative responding that occurred across sessions. Results indicated that after the implementation of treatment there was a systematic increase in creative play behavior across participants during training trials. During probe trials, during which untrained materials were used, responding increased systematically from baseline to treatment. Creative responding also increased from pre-test to post-test for all three participants when novels materials, novel teachers and a novel setting were used. The present study demonstrated that a treatment package was effective in increasing creative play behavior in children with autism. In future research, a component analysis could be conducted to determine the components of the treatment package that were necessary and sufficient for skill acquisition and generalization of creative play behavior in children with autism.
