"(...) Independent examiners administered standardized tests of cognitive, language, and adaptive skills to children in all three groups at intake and about 14 months after treatment began.
(..) At follow-up, the intensive behavior analytic intervention group had higher mean standard scores in all skill domains than the intensive "eclectic" intervention and non-intensive public early intervention programs."

Sallows GO, Graupner TD.

Barbaresi WJ, Katusic SK, Voigt RG.

Controlled Study Behavioral Treatment Between Ages 4 and 7: A Comparison Outcome for Children with Autism who Began Intensive
Svein Eikeseth, Tristram Smith, Erik Jahr and Sigmund Eldevik
Behav Modif ; 31; 264 (2007)
"Both behavioral and eclectic treatment took place in public kindergartens and elementary schools for typically developing children. At a mean age of 8 years, 2 months, the behavioral treatment group showed larger increases in IQ and adaptive functioning than did the eclectic group. The behavioral treatment group also displayed fewer aberrant behaviors and social problems at follow-up."
