The present study reports the training of a 6-year-old girl with autism in the skills of Scissors-Paper-Stone games, including how to judge correctly who is the winner (loser). Training in the game consisted of four stages: shaping concepts of winning-losing; developing motivation for competition; comprehending the rules for winning and losing, that is, the relationship between the three components-Scissors, Paper, and Stone; and understanding the purpose of the game. The results were as follows: (1) Although the girl expressed her emotion only few times, she appeared to have developed the concepts of winning -losing, because she judged correctly who won (lost) a game and expressed emotions on winning-losing. (2) As the girl received a reinforcer whenever she won a game, expression of emotion on winning-losing and motivation for competition could be promoted. (3) Through shaping the concept of losing, expression of motivation for competition was promoted and it was suggested that repertory of competitive behaviors which a child with autism could participate in could be expanded.
