This is a project to be funded by a Fast-Track Small Business Innovative Research to build and test the feasibility of a new software prototype called V-Motive which will facilitate the combination of two proven autism behavioral interventions: Applied Behavior Analysis therapy (ABA) and Video Modeling (VM). The investigators will conduct a Phase I feasibility analysis and Phase II pilot study of the V-Motive Prototype by observing a community therapy providers' use of the prototype in a therapy setting. Investigators will observe the users and record the success or failure of the performance of key functions of the software. Investigators will also administer surveys. The study will answer research questions about V-Motive's ability to perform its intended function: allowing interventionists to feasibly leverage video modeling within ABA therapy with a minimal amount of overhead and labor.
Investigators will conduct a within-subject pilot study of 6 tutors and 6 children to answer research questions about V-Motive's ability to perform its intended function. The goal is to evaluate the feasibility, usability, and the potential of V-Motive to deliver comprehensive, individualized video modeling that is integrated with a child's program. Investigators will also use descriptive statistics to provide preliminary insight into the potential impact of the system on a child's performance in their ABA therapy. However, these data are NOT intended to show cause or to show effectiveness. The study will answer the following questions: 1) 3) Can V-Motive be feasibly used during ABA therapy to positively impact a child's performance within 4 weeks? 2) How laborious is it to construct a fully-indexed video repository from therapy footage using V-Motive? 3) How accurate is the system in suggesting and cueing up appropriate video for playback on demand?

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| children and tutors using V-Motive | Experimental | The following intervention will be administered: ABA therapy enhanced with V-Motive software Tutors treating children with Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy will use the V-Motive software to enhance therapy sessions. Children will receive therapy as usual, but half of their current behavioral programs (skills/goals) will have been selected for enhanced prompting through video modeling. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ABA therapy enhanced with V-Motive software | Behavioral | Tutors will use the V-Motive software to enhance their delivery of Applied Behavioral Analysis therapy. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Feasibility of V-Motive software's ability to positively impact a child's performance within 4 weeks | The following pilot feasibility measures will be captured for each tutor/child pair: 1) Usage: the total number of times the tutor chooses to use VM (an indicator that the tutor found it useful); 2) Overall Trial Success Rate: the percent of trials that were successful (e.g. recorded as a "pass") in programs with and without VM; 3) Mastery: the trials to criteria and the total number of targets mastered with and without VM; 4) Behavior Impact: the number of tantrums and other tracked behaviors occurring with and without VM (tracked by tutor using Abacus behavior tracker). | 4-week trial starting in 2020 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Amount of time required to construct a fully-indexed video repository from therapy footage using V-Motive | Researchers will measure the time it takes to construct the video repository for each tutor (time spent setting up camera, initializing the upload process, etc). | 4-week trial starting in 2020 |
| Accuracy of V-Motive software in suggesting and cueing up appropriate video for playback on demand |

The system will automatically capture the number of times a tutor adjusts the video for playback, number of times a video is rewound or fast-forwarded to obtain the appropriate start time, and the amount of time spent seeking before the video is cued up for playback to the child. For precision determination, actual start times will be obtained by manually reviewing the video of selected trials, and user seek times will be automatically tracked by the system. |
