Navigating the Transition: Behavior Analysts' Insights on Supporting Autistic Children Moving From Intensive Behavior Intervention to Public School.
Article in Behavior analysis in practice, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 partnership between Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and schools in transitioning autistic (We intentionally use both identity-first (e.g., "autistic child") and person-first language (e.g., "child with autism") to respect the diverse language preferences of autistic individuals, caregivers, and professionals.) children from Intensive Behavioral Intervention (IBI) to public school is not well-documented. This qualitative study used focus groups to explore the experiences of nine BCBAs with this transition, examining facilitators, barriers, current practices, and recommendations for improvement. BCBAs described relationship-building and rapport as essential for successful transitions but noted that limited collaboration, knowledge gaps, and compensation issues often hindered their efforts. To address these barriers, this study provides practical tools to help BCBAs implement best practices and strengthen partnerships with schools. These findings underscore the need for future research and policy development to enhance transition support for autistic learners and their families.
