Early intensive behavioral treatment: replication of the UCLA model in a community setting.
TL;DR: Evidence that EIBT can be successfully implemented in a community setting is provided, although the study was limited by the nonrandom assignment to groups.

Reducing behavior problems through functional communication training
Edward G. Carr,V. Mark Durand +1 more
TL;DR: An assessment method for identifying situations in which behavior problems, including aggression, tantrums, and self-injury, were most likely to occur was developed and results demonstrated that both low level of adult attention and high level of task difficulty were discriminative for misbehavior.
Journal Article
Long-term outcome for children with autism who received early intensive behavioral treatment.
TL;DR: Behavioral treatment may produce long-lasting and significant gains for many young children with autism after a very intensive behavioral intervention.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized trial of intensive early intervention for children with pervasive developmental disorder.
TL;DR: For example, this paper found that the parent training group outperformed the intensive treatment group on measures of intelligence, visual-spatial skills, language, and academics, though not adaptive functioning or behavior problems.
