Resumo

Esta investigación tuvo el objetivo de probar un sistema integral para enseñar a niños con el diagnóstico de autismo. Tres niños recibieron enseñanza intensiva durante aproximadamente tres meses, con programas adaptados individualmente a su nivel funcional. Esos programas se habían demostrado eficaces, en investigaciones anteriores, para enseñar a niños con problemas de aprendizaje o se derivaron de principios básicos de aprendizaje. Evaluamos constantemente la eficacia de cada programa con cada niño, y sustituimos inmediatamente los programas menos efectivos por otros eficaces. Los tres niños aprendieron aproximadamente una habilidad por cada hora de enseñanza. Aprendieron más habilidades por hora cuando la intervención fue intensiva; esto muestra que un programa intensivo incrementa la efectividad de la intervención. En conjunto, este sistema se mostró efectivo para enseñar habilidades a niños con autismo, lo cual supuso mejorar su calidad de vida y la de sus familiares. Este sistema puede ser aplicado en los colegios de educación especial.
