Abstract
Impairment in social behavior is one of the core diagnostic features of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Also, the previous research displayed limited success with generalization of social skills from training setting. Teaching Interaction procedure (Leaf et al., 2009) is used to teach social skills to students with ASD. This study examines the effectiveness of a group Teaching Interaction procedure to teach social skills to four participants with ASD in a school setting. The programmed generalization procedure (Kassardjian et al., 2013) was used to transfer the trained skills into the participants’ regular classroom.
