title: Evaluating the High-Probability Instructional Sequence to Increase the Acceptance of Foods with an Adolescent with Autism.
abstract: This study evaluates the effectiveness of a variation of the high-probability (high-p) sequence involving bites of food as high-ptasks on the acceptance of low-probability (low-p) foods in an adolescent with autism spectrum disorder. After demonstrating the effectiveness of the high-psequence using a reversal design, the participant's mother implemented the intervention. Intervention effects were partially maintained during 7-month maintenance probes. Implications for research and practice are provided.
