Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) is a widely used intervention for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It focuses on pivotal areas, such as motivation and social initiations, with the goal of improving communication, behavior, and social skills. PRT emphasizes naturalistic teaching strategies, using child interests to promote learning and generalization of skills. Through positive reinforcement and shaping, PRT aims to enhance pivotal behaviors, leading to broader improvements in functioning. Its flexible and child-centered approach makes it a popular choice among families and professionals alike.
