Since the publication of the Salamanca Statement, inclusive education has gained prominence at a global range. In China, this has seen the implementation of 'Learning in Regular Classroom' -- a nationwide program initiated by the Chinese government in the 1980s to make regular schools accessible to children with disabilities.

Naito, Yumi; Enomoto, Noriyuki; Kameno, Yosuke; Yamasue, Hidenori; Suda, Takafumi; Hotta, Yoshihiro – SAGE Open, 2021
Mental distress is highly prevalent in university students, and autistic traits can hinder academic education. The substantial lifestyle changes experienced by new university students can induce mood and anxiety dysfunctions and subsequent suicide-related behaviors. The aims of this study were to evaluate the detectability of suicidal ideation…

Kulawiak, Pawel R. – Cogent Education, 2021
Classroom noise impairs students' cognition and learning. At a first glance, it seems useful to prevent the negative effects of noise on academic learning by wearing noise-cancelling (NC) headphones during class. The literature and guidelines emphasize the academic benefits of wearing NC headphones (decreased auditory distraction, increased…

Siu, Michelle T.; Goodman, Sarah J.; Yellan, Isaac; Butcher, Darci T.; Jangjoo, Maryam; Grafodatskaya, Daria; Rajendram, Rageen; Lou, Youliang; Zhang, Rujun; Zhao, Chunhua; Nicolson, Rob; Georgiades, Stelios; Szatmari, Peter; Scherer, Stephen W.; Roberts, Wendy; Anagnostou, Evdokia; Weksberg, Rosanna – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Many neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) share common learning and behavioural impairments, as well as features such as dysregulation of the oxytocin hormone. Here, we examined DNA methylation (DNAm) in the 1st intron of the oxytocin receptor gene, "OXTR," in patients with autism spectrum (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity (ADHD)…

Dudschig, Carolin; Kaup, Barbara; Liu, Mingya; Schwab, Juliane – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2021
Negation is a universal component of human language; polarity sensitivity (i.e., lexical distributional constraints in relation to negation) is arguably so while being pervasive across languages. Negation has long been a field of inquiry in psychological theories and experiments of reasoning, which inspired many follow-up studies of negation and…

Zajic, Matthew Carl; Solari, Emily Jane; McIntyre, Nancy Susan; Lerro, Lindsay; Mundy, Peter Clive – Grantee Submission, 2021
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) demonstrate heterogeneous writing skills that are generally lower than their typically developing (TD) peers and similar to peers with attention difficulties like attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Recent evidence suggests children with ASD spend less time engaging in writing tasks…

Wienen, Albert W.; Sluiter, Maruschka N.; Thoutenhoofd, Ernst; de Jonge, Peter; Batstra, Laura – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 2019
In Western countries, the number of ADHD diagnoses and medical treatments of children has risen spectacularly over the last decennia, as has the amount of criticism about this trend. Various studies have shown that children receiving an ADHD classification often follow from initial signals that were raised in a school context. Hence, it becomes…

Willoughby, David; Evans, Mary Ann – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2019
University students with a learning disability (LD) represent a growing fraction of the student population within North America. Although past research has focused on cognitive aspects of living with an LD and/or attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), social-emotional factors have received less attention. Such factors may play an…

Using items from established scales, we gathered survey data (n=27) as well as interview data (n=23), and examined the ability of mindset, grit, and…

Sultan, Aysel; Andresen, Sabine – Global Studies of Childhood, 2019
Andresen discussed vulnerability as an analytical category in childhood studies and reflected on how the concept could be linked to structural, systemic and individual factors. This article starts by asking what vulnerability is and by examining its relation to agency. It suggests conceptualising agency as a dynamic experience rather than as a…

Mohn, Tea – ProQuest LLC, 2019
Identifying effective research-based interventions for students with ADHD is imperative because this disorder impacts numerous domains in the child's life, such as academic, behavioral, and interpersonal skills. Unfortunately, limited research studies are available that address effective interventions specifically designed for African American…

Regan, Kelley; Evmenova, Anya S.; Mergen, Reagan L.; Verbiest, Courtney; Hutchison, Amy; Murnan, Reagan; Field, Sara; Gafurov, Boris – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2023
Rubrics can be used to give students targeted feedback on their writing and, therefore, teachers should be able to use them as a type of formative assessment to guide writing instruction. This article describes an exploratory study of how three teachers provided instruction for fourth, fifth, and seventh graders with learning disabilities and…

Collet, Ophélie A.; Orri, Massimiliano; Tremblay, Richard E.; Boivin, Michel; Côté, Sylvana M. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2023
We assessed the psychometric properties of the Social Behavior Questionnaire (SBQ), a 30-item questionnaire evaluating social (e.g., disruptive behaviors, bullying) and emotional problems (e.g., anxiety, depression) among children aged 3.5-12 years. Children (n = 1,950, 50.21% boys) were drawn from the Quebec Longitudinal Study of Child…
