Direct linkYuan, Chengan; Deng, Xiaolei; Zhu, Jing; Wang, Chongying – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2023
Instruction in auditory-visual conditional discriminations for young children with autism spectrum disorder is typically based on either a conditional-only or a simple-conditional method. In this study, we evaluated a modified simple-conditional method in which we removed the steps for which visual comparisons were presented in isolation. We…

Plumb, Mandy S.; Charity, Megan; Milla, Kimberly; Bodt, Barry; Getchell, Nancy – Journal of Motor Learning and Development, 2023
Background: Previous research suggests that children with or at risk of probable developmental coordination disorder (pDCD) activate different areas of the brain when performing certain motor skills compared with typically developing (TD) children. This study used functional near-infrared spectroscopy to compare prefrontal cortex (PFC) activity in…

Anquillare, Elizabeth; Selmeczy, Diana – Developmental Psychology, 2023
The ability to prioritize remembering explicitly valuable information is termed value-based remembering. Critically, the processes and contexts that support the development of value-based remembering are largely unknown. The present study examined the effects of feedback and metacognitive differences on value-based remembering in predominantly…

Ludlow, Amanda K.; Osborne, Clarissa; Keville, Saskia – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
The present study addressed the different contributors to social anxiety in children with Selective Mutism (SM), with and without co-occurring Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) (SM + ASD). Seventy-five parents completed an online composite questionnaire consisting of the symptoms of SM and ASD, anxiety and sensory measures. The results found the SM +…

L.; Edgar, J. Christopher – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Maturation of auditory cortex neural encoding processes was assessed in children with typical development (TD) and autism. Children 6-9 years old were enrolled at Time 1 (T1), with follow-up data obtained ~ 18 months later at Time 2 (T2), and ~ 36 months later at Time 3 (T3). Findings suggested an initial period of rapid auditory cortex maturation…

Thomas, Rebecca P.; Wittke, Kacie; Blume, Jessica; Mastergeorge, Ann M.; Naigles, Letitia – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
This longitudinal study examined the degree to which standardized measures of language and natural language samples predicted later language usage in a heterogeneous sample of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and how this relationship is impacted by ASD severity and interventions. Participants with a diagnosis of ASD (N = 54, 41…

Hatfield, Megan K.; Ashcroft, Emma; Maguire, Siobhan; Kershaw, Lauren; Ciccarelli, Marina – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Children on the autism spectrum often experience anxiety. Mindfulness is growing in popularity as a method to support children with anxiety; however, there is limited evidence on mindfulness for children on the autism spectrum. This study investigated the feasibility of a 10-week group-based mindfulness intervention for 14 children on the autism…

Hanish, Laura D.; Xiao, Sonya Xinyue; Malouf, Laura Means; Martin, Carol Lynn; Goble, Priscilla; Fabes, Richard A.; DeLay, Dawn; Bryce, Crystal – Early Education and Development, 2023
Research Findings: We tested whether a universal classroom peer pairing intervention -- "Buddy Up" -- would strengthen dyadic peer interactions among preschoolers (N = 140; M[subscript age] = 56.49 months; 53.6% boys; 77.9% Latinx). The "Buddy Up" intervention was informed by Intergroup Contact Theory, which specifies the…

Supply, Anne-Sophie; Wijns, Nore; Van Dooren, Wim; Onghena, Patrick – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2023
The many studies with coin-tossing tasks in literature show that the concept of randomness is challenging for adults as well as children. Systematic errors observed in coin-tossing tasks are often related to the representativeness heuristic, which refers to a mental shortcut that is used to judge randomness by evaluating how well a set of random…

Pelizzari, Federica; Marangi, Michele; Rivoltella, Pier Cesare; Peretti, Giulia; Massaro, Davide; Villani, Daniela – Research on Education and Media, 2023
We propose the results of a research that combines the educational and psychological media approach, to verify the pedagogical potential of coding and robotics in the learning processes of 4-year-old children at the cognitive and socio-relational level. The study investigated the impact of unplugged and plugged coding on the skills of spatiality,…

Melo, Cláudia; Ribeiro, Tiago Pinto; Prior, Catarina; Gesta, Camila; Martins, Vânia; Oliveira, Guiomar; Temudo, Teresa – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Motor stereotypies are frequently reported in individuals with autism spectrum disorder, but determinants of stereotypies remain poorly understood. In this study, a randomized sample of children with diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder was investigated to identify the prevalence and determinants of stereotypies. A total of 134 children who…

Boldrini, Greta; Fox, Amy C.; Savage, Robert S. – Literacy, 2023
We describe the rationale for- and content of- a freely available, novel, theoretically driven and evidence-based approach to improving the teaching of word reading in reception classrooms called 'Flexible Phonics'. Flexible Phonics (FP) adds measurable value to-, rather than wholly replacing, existing synthetic phonics programmes. The rationale…

Herbst, Chris M. – Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, 2023
Participation in non-parental child care arrangements is now the norm for preschool-age children in the U.S. However, child care services are becoming increasingly expensive for many families, and quality is highly uneven across providers and sectors, raising questions about the impact of child care costs and quality on parental employment and…

The Kamishibai theatre is a traditional Japanese method of storytelling using illustrated boards successively taken out of a small wooden chest used as a screen. Although the method has a significant educational and therapeutic potential, researchers devote little attention to it, focusing mainly on its connection with developing language…
