The intervention consisted of three components: (a) a planning period, including reading a storybook that illustrated the play theme and use of the social pragmatic communication strategies, practice using vocabulary to be used in play, and choosing roles for the thematic activity; (b) a 10-min play session in whi… Show more

“…It was common for studies to address more than one of the typology themes (Table 45), for example 'speech' is represented within 33 of the retained studies 171 and five of these studies were also included in the 'expressive language' theme, 139,154,157,168,169 one in the 'self-monitoring' theme, 154 17 in the 'generalisation' theme, [138][139][140][144][145][146][147][149][150][151][152]154,[157][158][159]164,167 one in the 'adult understanding' theme 134 and one in the 'adult-child interaction' theme.…”

“…This approach involves teaching children four social communication skills (i.e., initiating, responding, name use, turn taking), providing an advanced play organizer (e.g., teaching target vocabulary words, assigning children play roles, reading the storybook, play planning), structuring play sessions within a dramatic theme, and engaging children in a brief review session to review their performance. Over the past four years, we have conducted a series of single-case intervention studies involving a total of 46 children attending high-poverty preschools to evaluate the efficacy of this shared-storybook reading on children's positive peer interactions and verbal play (e.g., Stanton-Chapman, Kaiser, Vijay, & Chapman, 2008;Stanton-Chapman, Kaiser, & Wolery, 2006;Stanton-Chapman & Snell, In Press). Although this intervention has produced immediate and pronounced social-related improvements for the majority of participating children, some participants' gains were delayed.…”
