Figure 4. Frequency of prompted <strong>and</strong> unprompted student generated questi<strong>on</strong>s by children with autism<br />
spectrum disorder<br />
tificati<strong>on</strong> to interpretati<strong>on</strong> of events, problems,<br />
<strong>and</strong> soluti<strong>on</strong>s. For example, in beginning<br />
sessi<strong>on</strong>s, Austin asked <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> following,<br />
“Where are <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g>y going?”; “Who is Arthur telling<br />
to go away?” In later sessi<strong>on</strong>s, Austin’s<br />
unprompted questi<strong>on</strong>s were specific <strong>and</strong><br />
clearly stated, “Why does Arthur have to clean<br />
up his room before mommy gets home?”;<br />
“What did Arthur <strong>and</strong> Buster fight about?”<br />

prompting when questi<strong>on</strong>s targeted an event<br />
as opposed to o<str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g>r story elements (see Table<br />

effectively asked “why” questi<strong>on</strong>s throughout<br />
interventi<strong>on</strong>, which most often reflected <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g><br />
problem in <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> story. However, during initial<br />
sessi<strong>on</strong>s, Barry started <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> majority of his questi<strong>on</strong>s<br />
using <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> questi<strong>on</strong> word “why.” Later, he<br />
effectively asked a range of questi<strong>on</strong>s using<br />
questi<strong>on</strong> words o<str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g>r than “why” (e.g., “What<br />
did Arthur’s puppy do?”; “What happened to<br />
