Teaching toileting skills are among the most essential educational objectives for children with developmental disabilities; however, there are few investigations of the utility
of various toilet training approaches for children with autism. The purpose of this study
is to determine whether “Program for Supporting Home- and Institution-based Toileting
Skills for Families” enables mothers to acquire the skill of teaching toileting control to
their children and for children to acquire day-time toileting control. The results show
that children attained toileting skills rapidly and consistently throughout the program.
The procedures followed during these activities and the outcomes regarding each participant are discussed.
