Coaching parents to use language facilitation strategies improves long-term language outcomes for autistic children. To optimize parent-mediated interventions, more studies need to explore factors that influence parents' learning. This study involved 119 autistic children (18-48 months) and their biological mothers enrolled in a single-site,…

Silva, Laiza Ribeiro; da Silva, Alan Pedro; Elias, Nassim Chamel; Isotani, Seiji – Interactive Learning Environments, 2022
Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder with deficits in communication, social interaction, and restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior. Due to these restrictions, one can cite the literacy process as a learning problem for people with autism. Although psychological interventions have been used to mitigate this problem, technology plays an…

Michael L. Tomak – ProQuest LLC, 2020
Mands are a vital skill for the development of a child's communicative repertoire and are typically a major focus of early intensive behavior interventions (EIBI). Naturalistic teaching is more efficient than Discrete-Trial Training (DTT) for teaching mands (Jennet, Harris, & Delmolino, 2008); and therefore, the present study used crucial…

In this research, we present a mobile serious…

Abbot-Smith, Kirsten; Dockrell, Julie; Sturrock, Alexandra; Matthews, Danielle; Wilson, Charlotte – First Language, 2023
Individual differences in children's social communication have been shown to mediate the relationship between poor vocabulary or grammar and behavioural difficulties. Moreover, there is increasing evidence that social communication skills predict difficulties with peers over and above vocabulary and grammar scores. The essential social…
