Baseline, probe, intervention, maintenance and generalization sessions were conducted. Results indicated that video modelling was effective in teaching hotel house-keeping skills to adults with intellectual disabilities. Moreover, the acquired hotel house-keeping skills were maintained over time and generalized across settings and materials. the assessment of video based non-target skills data showed that participants acquired the non-target information with the range from 33% to 100%. in conclusion video modelling can be used effectively in teaching vocational skills to adults with intellectual disabilities.
