Highlights
• This study presents a meta-analytic review of single-case experimental studies
involving tablet-mediated interventions for individuals with ASD.
• The Tau nonoverlap effect size with the Kruskal-Wallis and the Dunn post-hoc
tests were calculated to analyze participant age, participant diagnosis,
independent variable, outcome measure, setting, and context.
• Results show that tablet-based interventions for individuals with ASD have
moderate to large effects across the variables analyzed.

Abstract
Background
There is a growing amount of single-case research literature on the benefits of tablet-
mediated interventions for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). With the
development of tablet-based computers, tablet-mediated interventions have been widely
utilized for education and treatment purposes; however, the overall quality and evidence of
this literature-base are unknown.
Aims
This article aims to present a quality review of the single-case experimental literature and
aggregate results across studies involving the use of tablet-mediated interventions for
individuals with ASD.
