| Abstract: | Comprehension is a crucial academic skill that is necessary for independent living. Unfortunately many children with autism often exhibit difficulties being able to interpret and comprehend written language. There is limited research on effective comprehension practices to enhance the comprehension development of children with autism. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of two repeated reading interventions (computer and storybook) on the comprehension of five children with autism. Findings indicated that several of the children performed better than would otherwise have been expected for both interventions. Neither of the computer or storybook interventions showed to be more beneficial than the other, indicating that these interventions may both be effective in increasing some children's listening comprehension of text. (Contains 3 tables and 1 figure.) |
