The Generalization of Mands
Caio Miguel3.00 out of 5(1)The mand relation, a foundational verbal operant driven by a motivating operation (MO), enables individuals to make requests, directly benefiting the speaker and fostering other behavioral developments, including the reduction of problem behavior. This presentation from the 2019 Michigan Autism Conference explores how the mand’s occurrence, shaped by various discriminative stimuli (SDs), allows for its generalization across different MOs and SDs, and how the same MO can lead to new mand topographies.

Evaluating the Reliability and Sensitivity of the VB-MAPP as an Outcome Measure in Autism Research
Amin Lotfizadeh & Khrystle MontallanaThis study, presented at the 2019 Michigan Autism Conference, explored the inter-rater reliability of the VB-MAPP, a widely used assessment and curriculum guide in autism interventions, and tested its effectiveness as an outcome measure for low-intensity behavioral interventions. The findings show good reliability for milestones and moderate reliability for barriers, with some variability in individual domains. When compared to the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale, the VB-MAPP demonstrated a greater sensitivity to detecting gains from low-dosage interventions.

Navigating Higher Education with ASD
Chaturi EdrisinhaThis presentation from the 2017 Michigan Autism Conference highlights strategies and supports developed at Oakland University (OU) to assist undergraduate and graduate students with ASD in navigating academia. An innovative program called Genius-to-Genius was created in response to identified challenges, such as difficulty with team projects and socialization. By pairing students with peer consultants trained to help them build relationships and enhance social skills, the program addresses social issues, retention, and attrition commonly experienced by students with ASD in college.
