• The current study evaluated the effectiveness of Camp Discovery, a mobile application developed by the Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD), which incorporates the principles of applied behavior analysis (ABA) to teach skills across a wide variety of domains.
• Camp Discovery was found to be effective in teaching receptive language skills to autistic children.
• Evidence-based computer-based interventions, like Camp Discovery, show promise for supplementing existing interventions and increasing access to treatment.
