Dr. Rаmоs wаs interested in hоw different interventiоns support sociаl functioning in children with autism. She also wondered whether children’s language abilities influence how effective different therapies are. Dr. Ramos recruited children diagnosed with autism and randomly assigned them to either an Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) program, or a Social Skills Group program.
