TAGteacher and author Mary Lynch Barbera presented the results of her study entitled: TAGteach and Autism at the 2010 Association for Applied Behavior Analysis conference in Texas in May. Mary designed a multiple probe study to test the impact of TAGteach on shoe tying in her son. Lucas had never been taught to tie his shoes.
