• The current study investigated the differential impact of treatment intensity and duration across various skill domains.
• Academic and language skill domains were found to have the greatest response to treatment intensity and duration.
• Greater understanding of the differential effect of treatment intensity and duration across skill domains may help clinicians make informed decisions regarding the allocation of treatment hours to improve treatment efficiency and maximize outcomes.
