Abstract
The purpose of this mixed method study using a single-case design was to determine if prompt fading is beneficial in increasing the rate of completion in cleaning a dormitory room for three students with an intellectual disability participating in a postsecondary program. In addition, the intervention’s social validity was measured through participant interviews. While the intervention showed a relation with increased clean dormitory rooms for the participants, it was determined the participants preferred the use of technology to conduct the dormitory room checks over in-person measures.
