• The current study compared rates of skill mastery between autistic individuals receiving behavioral intervention in center-based and home-based treatment settings.
• Participants who received center-based services were found to have significantly higher rates of skill acquisition than participants who received home-based services.
• Participants who received both center-based and home-based services were found to master 100% more targets per hour when treatment was conducted in the center in comparison to their home.
