Published studies and dissertations incorporating at least four of the five steps in the CICO intervention and where the same adult served as CICO facilitator in both the check-in and check-out conversations were included. The PRISMA search protocols were followed to identify 36 studies meeting inclusion criteria. Each of the 36 included studies was analyzed to identify study characteristics and settings, intervention adaptations, CICO facilitator nomination and training, and method for selecting daily goals. Micro-coding was used to analyze consistent features and trauma-informed aspects of check-in and check-out conversations across studies. After analyses, findings included lack of specificity on facilitator conversation aspects and no consensus of what such conversations should look like. Future directions for researchers are provided including strengthening CICO conversations to include trauma-informed and relationship-building practices to address specificity and quality of the conversations.","PeriodicalId":505392,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Disorders","volume":"313 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141381223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many interventions have been developed to increase compliance. High-probability request sequences (HPRS), an antecedent-based intervention that is based on behavioral momentum theory, is one way to increase compliant behavior. HPRS includes the presentation of two-to-five easy or known tasks with a high probability of compliance immediately before requesting tasks with a low probability of compliance. The purpose of the current meta-analysis was to review the literature in the last 40 years on high- p request sequences as an intervention to improve compliance in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Specifically, we examined the methodological rigor of the high-p single-case research for students with autism, identified the descriptive characteristics of these studies, and estimated treatment effects with Tau- U to determine whether HPRS is an evidence-based practice (EBP) for increasing compliance in children with ASD. Our results showed that HPRS is a very effective practice in increasing compliance in children with ASD (Tau- U = .87) and a promising EBP for improving compliance in children with ASD. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.","PeriodicalId":505392,"journal":{"name":"Behavioral Disorders","volume":"2 9","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139863431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
