We compared the results of a brief video‐based multiple‐stimulus without replacement preference assessment with no access to chosen activities ( MSWO‐NO ) to the results of the same assessment with access ( MSWO‐WA ) with four children with autism. We also compared instructor rankings of activities to MSWO‐WA results. Strong to moderate correlations between MSWO‐NO and MSWO‐WA assessment results were found across all participants. The correlation between MSWO‐WA and instructor rankings ranged from strong to low across all participants. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
