Abstract Details

2016, Doctor of Philosophy, Ohio State University, Educational Studies.
This dissertation consists of an introduction, followed by three, stand-alone papers, and concludes with a research statement. Chapter 1 is an introduction to the dissertation and a statement of the problem. Chapter 2 is a comprehensive literature review evaluating how physical activity is being used as an intervention and being taught to people with intellectual disabilities. Chapter 3 is a research study that evaluated the effects of simultaneous and least-to-most prompting package on teaching three adolescents with intellectual disabilities how to engage in three exercises. Chapter 4 is a practitioner paper that disseminates the findings from Chapters 2 and 3, and provides suggestions about how to increase the amount of physical activity in special education classrooms. Finally, Chapter 5 is a research statement summarizing my research to date and describing future directions for my research line.
