Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
The objective of this research paper is to explore the advantages, limitations, and empirical evidence for the effectiveness of video modeling as an instructional approach for children with autism. Video modeling, which falls under assistive technology in therapeutic intervention strategies, utilizes videos to exhibit desired behaviors and competencies. A total of 28 research articles, carefully selected from 3 reputable publication resources (APA PsycNet, Springer, and Eric), were analyzed through content analysis. These articles were published in online databases between 2000 and 2024. The following sections of the paper delve into the benefits of video modeling, including improved learning opportunities, increased engagement, and transferable skills. Furthermore, the paper presents empirical research findings that support the positive impact of video modeling on enhancing social skills in children with autism.
