Abstract Details

2015, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, EDU Physical Activity and Educational Services.
Toilet training is an important milestone for children and parents for several reasons, including but not limited to, independence, safety concerns, and social acceptance (Cicero & Pfadt, 2002; Hyams, MaCoull, Smith, & Tyler, 1992; Lott & Kroeger, 2004; McCartney, 1990). Toilet training individuals with disabilities can be difficult for several reasons, and many children with developmental disabilities require systematic training to acquire independent toileting skills (Burgio & Burgio, 1989; McCartney, 1990). Although toilet training individuals with developmental disabilities is one of the most frequently researched self-help skills, limited studies have reported success in toilet training individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD; Keen, Brannigan, & Cuskelly, 2007; Konarski & Diorio, 1985). Kroeger and Sorensen (2010) suggest an additional need for research on toilet training given the increase of ASD diagnoses. This study examined the effects of an intensive 2-day potty training protocol with 3 children with ASD. The results suggest this protocol was not successful with 2 of the 3 participants.
