Abstract

A within-subject study was conducted to determine if compression clothing affects repetitive behaviors in individuals with autism. Nine children with autism were recorded with and without compression clothing during 10 ABA therapy sessions. The findings suggest that compression does not influence the presence of repetitive behaviors.
