Problem-solving strategies, such as visual imagining and self-questioning, may assist children with Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in recalling past events. In the current study, at the start of each session, a 7-year-old boy with ASD engaged in a novel activity with a behavior therapist who took pictures of the activity. Ninety minutes later, a different therapist asked the participant to describe the prior activity. The intervention consisted of showing the participant pictures of the activity, telling him to close his eyes and imagine the activity, modeling asking and answering seven questions (e.g., "Who was there?" "What was one thing that happened?"), prompt fading, and reinforcement. Following the intervention, recall statements increased.
