Leaf, Justin B.; Leaf, Ronald; Leaf, Jeremy A.; Alcalay, Aditt; Ravid, Daniel; Dale, Stephanie; Kassardjian, Alyne; Tsuji, Kathleen; Taubman, Mitchell; McEachin, John; Oppenheim-Leaf, Misty L. – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2018
Today, the use of formal preference assessments, including paired-stimulus preference assessments, is widely utilized to help determine which items to use as reinforcers during intervention. A second way to determine potential reinforcers is to analyze multiple dimensions of a stimulus in the moment, a procedure known as in-the-moment reinforcer…

Jissendi-Tchofo, Patrice; Pandit, Florence; Soto-Ares, Gustavo; Vallee, Louis – Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 2011
Aim: To describe neuropsychological disturbances and the developmental course associated with cerebellar cortical dysplasia (CCD). Method: The neuroimaging findings from 10 children (five males, five females; aged 3-10y) with CCD were reviewed and classified. These children all underwent clinical neurological examination and neuropsychological…
