Erken eğitim, otizm spektrum bozukluğu için risk altında olan ya da tanı almış çocukların gelişimleri için oldukça önem taşımaktadır. Bu çocuklara yönelik erken eğitim seçeneklerinden birisi olan uygulamalı davranış analizi (UDA) pek çok küçük çocukta olumlu gelişmeler sağlamaktadır. Bu vaka sunumunda, otizm spektrum bozukluğu için yüksek risk taşıyan 28 aylık bir çocuğa, uygulamalı davranış analizine dayalı yöntemler kullanılarak sunulan eğitimin ilk yılına ilişkin betimleyici bilgiler sunulmuştur. Ayrıca, çocuğun gelişimine ilişkin toplanan nitel ve nicel nitelikteki veriler aktarılmıştır. Bulgular; (a) çocuğun bireyselleştirilmiş eğitim programında yer alan becerilerde ilerlediğini, (b) otizm belirtilerinin yoğunluğunun azaldığını, (c) gelişimsel alanlarda performansının arttığını göstermiştir.
