Fortunately, research has shown that assistive technology, and particularly video prompting, helps support employment for individuals with ID. This single case multiple probe study investigated the efficacy of a highly customizable task analysis smartphone application in assisting three young adults with ID complete common work-related office tasks. Findings indicate all three participants demonstrated very large effect size gains in completing three unique office-related tasks once provided with the Task Analysis app. Keywords:  intellectual disability, assistive technology, employment, video prompting, mobile technology http://journals.gmu.edu/index.php/jipe/article/view/2890
