“…The discussion is as follows: Firstly, after the intervention of physical activity, the core symptoms of ASD were increased by a moderate effect size (ES = 0.702). This is consistent with the results that physical activity can improve social communication deficits or stereotyped and repetitive behaviors in people with neurological, emotional and behavioral disorders such as ADHD (Hoza et al, 2016), and Down syndrome (Neil et al, 2021). Previous studies have shown that white matter damage, myelin sheath dysplasia, and abnormal neural connections are related to the pathological mechanism of ASD (Solders et al, 2017).…”

In this paper, systematic review and meta‐analysis were used to demonstrate the effectiveness of physical activity intervention on core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Physical activity intervention for core symptoms of ASD were retrieved by computer from the PubMed Cochrane Library, Web of Science, APA PsycNet, and CNKI database during December 1, 2022. Two researchers evaluated the quality of the included literature and extracted the data. Sixteen studies were eventually included, with a total of 587 patients with ASD. Meta‐analysis showed that the core symptoms of ASD patients decreased after physical activity intervention, ES(g) = 0.681(95% CI: 0.380–0.982, p = 0.000), specifically, physical activity improved the reduction of social disorder ES(g) = 0.749(95% CI: 0.524–0.973) and repeated rigid behavior ES(g) = 0.553 (95% CI: −0.079 to 1.186). Subgroup analysis showed that preschool children with ASD who were 3–6 years old, exercised for more than 12 weeks, more than 3 times a week, and exercised for more than 90 min per session had better improvement in core symptoms after participating in physical activity. The conclusion of this paper is that physical activity intervention can improve the core symptoms of ASD, especially the reduction of social disorders and repetitive behaviors.

“…Also, we used Tau‐ U to identify the effectiveness of each study on increasing on‐task behaviors. Many recent reviews on behavior management used Tau‐ U method (Chaffee et al, 2017; Muharib et al, 2021; Neil et al, 2021). While PND (percentage of non‐overlapping data) has been used extensively in many single case research studies despite its limitations, Tau‐ U has gained attention from researchers and has been widely used in educational research.…”

Background: There have been several studies that involved technology-based selfmonitoring procedures to increase on-task behavior. Although there are continued advancements in technology application such as functions that are embedded in the application (e.g., reinforcement, feedback), the appropriate use of technology is required to be accompanied by evidence-based guidance.Objectives: The purpose of this meta-analytic approach was to (a) examine the effectiveness of a technology-based self-monitoring system on the on-task behavior of students with disabilities and (b) provide information that can support the use of a technology-based approach as an effective method for the teaching of relevant behavioral skills. Methods: All reviewed 16 studies employed a single-case research design, targeting technology-based self-monitoring interventions for students with disabilities. Studies were descriptively analyzed and evaluated for methodological quality using the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) standards and criteria. Additionally, to examine the level and trend of reading fluency outcomes, Tau-U was calculated across the studies by measuring the impact of various moderator variables on the intervention effects.Results and Conclusions: Overall, studies showed a strong effect of using the technology-based self-monitoring on on-task behaviors. The impacts of six possible moderator variables (i.e., school level, types of technology, student training, teacher feedback and teacher reinforcement) were analyzed and there was no significant difference in the six variables with regards to the effects of the technology-based selfmonitoring on the improvement of on-task behaviors.Implications: Based on the findings that support the positive impact of using mobile technology for increasing on-task behaviors of students with disabilities, directions for future research and practical applications were discussed.

“…A Análise do Comportamento Aplicada, muito conhecida pelo seu uso em pessoas com autismo, também tem sido estudada, a partir do delineamento de caso único, para pessoas com síndrome de down (e.g. Neil et al, 2021). Na área da neurorreabilitação houve um aumento exponencial de estudos com esse delineamento nos últimos 50 anos (Vlaeyen et al, 2020).…”

O presente artigo trata-se de um ensaio teórico com obje-tivo de discutir como delineamentos de caso único podem contribuir na pesquisa em Psicologia Clínica na Prática Baseada em Evidências (PBE) de resultados e processos de mudança. As bases de dados Pubmed, PsycInfo, Web of Science foram consultadas. Artigos e ca-pítulos relacionados ao tema que não foram recuperados na busca fo-ram incluídos posteriormente. Pontos apresentados por diferentes au-tores foram articulados. Conclui-se que delineamentos de caso único sempre tiveram um papel na práticas baseada em evidências, embora menor do que o atribuído aos ensaios clínicos randomizados. São apresentados diferentes parâmetros de qualidade para delineamentos de caso único. O modelo da Terapia Baseada em Processos é apresen-tado como exemplo de uma mudança de paradigma na PBE. Argu-menta-se que graças às suas características ideográficas, os delinea-mentos de caso único podem exercer um papel maior neste cenário, auxiliando na pesquisa de processos.
