Make a Token Economy More Fun with Special Interests

Posted on 12:38 by Unknown
A token economy is frequently used to reinforce positive behaviors and academic responses in students with autism. An example is shown in the video.



A token economy can be more fun and motivating if special interests are incorporated into the token economy. Pictures of a student's favorite characters, themes, or toys can be used as "tokens." Some examples are below.
