Effects of Class-Wide Choice Making on the Behaviour of Students with Mild Intellectual Disability

In general, behavioural intervention is a more effective form of treatment. By the way, several behavioural interventions were studied in the education field to support and prevent students' behaviour among them choice making. An ABAB withdrawal design was used to examine the effects of class-wide choice making on the engagement and disruptive behaviours of 12 students with mild intellectual disability enrolled in a two self-contained physical activity classes. Intervention was implemented in an ordinary context and applied at the class-wide level by applying a curricular modification. To measure the variables studied, direct observation was used to collect data from videos of filmed sessions by applying a code unit-grid. Data were analysed using quantitative methodologies. For class '1ʹ and '2ʹ, an increase in engagement and a decrease in disruptive behaviour was observed at the implementation of intervention B1 compared to baseline A1 (p
