The Use of a Visual Scene Display for the Acquisition of Manding in Young Children with Complex Communication Needs.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the use of an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered visual scene display (VSD) prototype, with a time delay, least-to-most prompting, and reinforcement in the acquisition of a mand repertoire for three preschool-aged children with complex communication needs (CCN), including those with suspected or confirmed autism diagnoses. A non-concurrent multiple baseline design across participants was used to evaluate the effects of the VSD on independent manding. All three participants' results suggest increases in independent manding following the introduction of the intervention. Brianna met the mastery criterion within nine intervention sessions, while Nick and Vera met the mastery criterion within nine and thirteen intervention sessions, respectively. Maintenance data suggested continued independent manding for two of the three participants following intervention. Results are consistent with previous research supporting the use of VSDs with young children with CCN and extend this literature by providing preliminary evidence for the use of AI-powered VSDs to support mand acquisition. Limitations of the prototype technology, clinical implications, and future directions are discussed.
