Toward Efficiency and Effectiveness: Comparing Equivalence-based Instruction to Progressive Discrete Trial Teaching. [PDF]
Research has found equivalence-based instruction (EBI) to be effective and efficient, with recent research extending these finding to individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). EBI has also been compared with more traditional approaches to teaching, such as traditional lectures, reading assignments, and video lectures.

A comparison of methods for collecting data on performance during discrete trial teaching. [PDF]
Therapists of children with autism use a variety of methods for collecting data during discrete-trial teaching. Methods that provide greater precision (e.g., recording the prompt level needed on each instructional trial) are less practical than methods with less precision (e.g., recording the presence or absence of a correct response on the first trial

Training parent implementation of discrete-trial teaching: effects on generalization of parent teaching and child correct responding. [PDF]
Behavioral skills training was used to teach 3 parents to implement discrete‐trial teaching with their children with developmental disabilities. Parents learned to implement discrete‐trial training, their skills generalized to novel programs, and the children's correct responding increased, suggesting that behavioral skills training is an effective and
