Video Modelling and Autism Ranking: Insufficient/Mixed evidence

Audience

Video modelling is designed to help a range of people learn new skills and behaviours. In practice, it is most often used as an intervention for autistic children and young people.

Some researchers have suggested that video modelling is particularly suitable for autistic people because of their preference for visual processing and learning approaches. (Rayner et al, 2009).

Some researchers have also suggested that, for video modelling to be successful, the participants need one or more prerequisite skills such as memory, paying attention and imitation. However Fragle (2014) has noted that there is currently insufficient research to prove if this is true or not.
