Abstract

<p>The purpose of the present study was to instruct 3 young adults (17 years old: 1; 20 years old: 2) with autism spectrum disorder in the behavior of refusing solicitations for malicious businesses, and to examine (a) acquisition of the behavior of refusing to be solicited by malicious businesses, (b) generalization to malicious businesses that had not been directly taught, and (c) appropriate discrimination between malicious businesses and non-malicious businesses. The instruction was conducted in the following order: presentation of rules, simulation training, and feedback from the trainer. For the presentation of rules, the participants viewed a video of how to refuse a malicious business solicitation and a rule sheet. In the simulation training, the participants were trained in an out-of-home condition and a home-based condition. For each condition, a pernicious sales task and a non-pernicious sales task were prepared. Feedback was given by the trainer after the training. Of the 3 participants, 2 succeeded in interpersonal generalization, 1 also succeeded in conditional generalization, and episodes of generalization in actual situations were confirmed for 1 participant.</p>
