Fisher et al.’s (2020) “A Randomized Clinical Trial of a Virtual-Training Program for Teaching Applied-Behavior-Analysis Skills to Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.” Student Name University Course Professor Name Date Fisher et al.’s (2020) “A Randomized Clinical Trial of a Virtual-Training Program for Teaching Applied-Behavior-Analysis Skills to Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.” The research presents a virtual parent training system based on e-learning sessions and role play scripts as an intervention for “autism spectrum disorder- ASD” kids’ parents who wish to learn “applied behavior analysis- ABA” skill delivery methods. The training program improved parental skills in implementing ABA practice and received outstanding social validity scores from participants. Critical Evaluation of Practices Telehealth teaches parents how to deliver ABA instruction effectively. Confederates supervised parents’ scripted role plays and standardized practice of appropriate and challenging behaviors using e-learning modules (Fisher et al., 2020). The methodology follows ABA best practices, emphasizing intervention fidelity (Brand et al., 2017). Parents actively participate in early “intensive behavioral intervention” (EIBI) programs for children with ASD because they serve as essential agents for sustaining therapy skills and their application outside therapy sessions (Tonge et al., 2014).
