Why Use PRT?
The potential advantages of using PRT over more traditional models include:
- increased generalization of acquired skills
- increased spontaneity and independence
- efficiency through collateral effects and “around-the-clock” implementation
- child- and family-friendly techniques that can be feasibly implemented
- improved engagement, behavior, and child affect during intervention
- improved parent affect and decreased parent stress
