Abstract

This study seeks to explore the impact of ABA (Applied Behavior Analysis) therapy on enhancing communication skills in children with autism. An experimental design involving pre-test and post-test assessments was utilized to measure changes in communication abilities before and after the ABA therapy intervention. Analysis with the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test revealed a notable improvement in communication skills among children with autism following the ABA therapy. Descriptive findings indicated that the average communication score at the pre-test was 27.75, while the post-test mean rose to 40.38, demonstrating a gain of 12.63 points. The Wilcoxon test produced a p-value of 0.012, which is below the typical significance threshold of 0.05, meaning the null hypothesis (Hâ‚€), which suggests no difference between pre-test and post-test, can be rejected. Thus, it can be concluded that ABA therapy has a significant positive impact on improving communication abilities in children with autism. Despite these encouraging results, the study's sample size is a limitation, and further research with larger samples and extended follow-up periods is required to deepen our understanding of ABA therapy's long-term effects.
