In defecation training, parent-mediated intervention via teleconsultation is helpful because the number of instructions for establishing defecation habits is limited. In the case report of the present study, defecation training was conducted based on gradual target setting and differential reinforcement through teleconsultation via email for a Caucasian 5-year-old boy with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who lived in Greece. As a result of the intervention, namely the gradual target setting and differential reinforcement, in-bowl defecations increased at home.
