| Abstract: This presentation focuses on application of ABA-based intervention methods for children with autism in China, specifically in group settings. A review of the literature demonstrates that ABA--based practices have been shown to be effective in small group settings, and there is a need to further infuse these best practices into settings such as classrooms for children with autism, including in China. The literature review is presented as a foundation and context, and is followed by presentation of two ongoing research studies examining the application of ABA to the Chinese educational context, in general education inclusive classrooms and in specialized programs that serve children with autism and their parents. |

| Target Audience: Practitioners, researchers |
| Learning Objectives: At the conclusion of the presentation, participants will be able to: (1) describe two important strategies to use when implementing ABA-based group instruction for children with autism; (2) list two important components of ABA-based group instruction in two diverse settings; (3) compare intervention in clinical and research settings with implementation in the natural environment, such as preschools and schools, including at least one similarity and two differences. |
