Abstract

This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the forward chaining method to improve the vocational skill among students with mild intellectual disabilities. This study applied a pre-experimental design, a one-shot case study research design. Research subjects included six students with mild intellectual disabilities from a special high school. All subjects participated in the intervention program which consisted of ten meetings. Data obtained from the test were then analyzed using non-parametric statistics. The result showed an average post-test score is 89 after receiving the intervention programs. Moreover, data analysis using binomial tests showed the value of 0.00217 which is smaller than crisis value of 1,000, so that the working hypothesis is accepted. Thus, it can be concluded that the forward chaining method is effective to improve the vocational skills among students with mild intellectual disabilities particularly in doing laundry.
