Since the 1960s, Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA) has proven successful in helping people with ASD. The University of California at Los Angeles - Young Autism Project (UCLA-YAP) model has demonstrated effectiveness in improving intellectual functioning, adaptive behaviour, communication, general ASD symptomatology, and school placement. The present thesis discusses the possibility of developing a new form of intervention called Non-early Intensive Behavioural Intervention (NIBI) aimed at improving the life conditions of adolescents and young adults with ASD (AyA-ASDs).<br><br><i>Thesis embargoed until 31st July 2028.</i> 2026-10-01T16:11:12Z Text Thesis 10.17034/32826050.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/thesis/Intensive_behavioural_interventions_for_adolescents_and_young_adults_with_autism/32826050 All Rights Reserved Open Access after 2028-07-31
