This chapter describes the Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD) approach to teaching learners with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) skills that involve intentional manipulation of their own environments in order to help them function more independently. The traditional cognitive terms that encompass these behaviors include inhibition, memory, attention, flexibility, planning, problem solving, and self-management. Using the principles and procedures of ABA, this chapter provides strategies for teaching these skills.
