History of Video Modeling

• Bandura’s Social Learning Theory
(1977) underscores that human
behavior is primarily learned by
observing and modeling others. These
opportunities provide a platform for
which one may generalize to new
experiences.

1986).
• Individuals with autism often benefit from visually cued instruction (Quill, 1997) and show
strengths in processing visual rather than verbal information as demonstrated across many
studies using standardized intelligence tests (DeMyer et al., 1974; Shah & Frith, 1983; Happe
1994a; Freeman et al., 1985; Asarnow et al., 1987; Lincoln et al., 1988).
• …children with autism often exhibit over selective attention (Lovaas et al., 1979) or a
restricted field of focus demonstrating a clear ability to sustain
attention for extended periods of time (Garretson et al., 1990; Buchsbaum et al., 1992; Casey
et al., 1993).
• …Children with autism can visually process information better if they have boarders around
their visual fields…therefore making a T.V. and computer screens an more effective way to
learn a new skill. (Murrary, 1

Other Studies Showing Success of Video
Modeling
• When teaching Preschoolers Complex Play Sequences To A PreschoolerWith Autism …
results showed that the video modeling intervention led to the rapid acquisition of both verbal and
motor responses for all play sequences. The video modeling teaching procedure was shown to
be an efficient technique for teaching relatively long sequences of responses in the absence of
chaining procedures in relatively few teaching sessions. Additionally, the complex sequences of
verbal and motor responses were acquired without the use of error correction procedures or
explicit, experimenter implemented reinforcement contingencies. Patricia D’Ateno, Kathleen
Mangiapanello, Bridget A. Taylor

the areas of communication, socialization, academics, and daily living (Ayres & Langone, 2005)
