Using Computer-Presented Social Stories and Video Models to Increase the Social Communication Skills of Children With High-Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders (2008, background): “Furthermore, the use of computers has been demonstrated to decrease inappropriate behaviors (Chen & Bernard-Opitz, 1993; Whalen, Liden, Ingersoll, Dallaire, & Liden, 2006) and improve vocabulary acquisition (Moore & Calvert, 2000) among children with ASD.”
Use of Technology in Interventions for Children with Autism (2004, background): “Although preliminary results look promising (e.g., Chen & Bernard-Opitz, 1993; Moore & Calvert, 2000; Williams et al., 2002; Charlop-Christy et al., 2000) continued research is needed before a definitive answer can be given.”
Use of Computer-Assisted Technologies (CAT) to Enhance Social, Communicative, and Language Development in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (2012, methodology): “Moore and Calvert (2000) also compared CAT with a ‘‘behavioral program’’ (BP; non-CAT) in a between-par-ticipant design where each child only received one of the two conditions.”
Videogames and Young People with Developmental Disorders (2010, background): “Moore and Calvert (2000) found that young children with autism were significantly more attentive to, and learned more words from, a computerized delivery of a vocabulary training package, as compared to a teacher-delivered version.”
Reading Comprehension Instruction for Students With Autism Spectrum Disorders (2007, background): “Moore and Calvert (2000) reported that computer-based instruction with graphics, sounds, and animation could capture the attention of children with autism and motivate their vocabulary learning.”
ECHOES: An intelligent serious game for fostering social communication in children with autism (2014, background): “Interestingly, in the area of literacy, positive results have been achieved not only through the employment of embodied virtual tutors, but also through the use of simpler user interfaces based on pictures and sounds [23,49,76].”
Innovative technology-based interventions for autism spectrum disorders: A meta-analysis (2014, methodology): “…2006 (Experiments 1 and 2); Golan et al., 2010; Moore and Calvert, 2000), symptom severity (Faja et al., 2008, 2012; Williams et al., 2002), and cognitive abilities (Faja et al., 2008, 2012; Golan and Baron-Cohen, 2006 (Experiments 1 and 2); Golan et al., 2010; Moore and Calvert, 2000).”
Development and Evaluation of a Computer-Animated Tutor for Vocabulary and Language Learning in Children with Autism (2003, methodology): “Moore and Calvert (2000) investigated the effectiveness of a computer program to teach vocabulary .”
