Book excerpt: Autism Spectrum Disorder is currently recognized as a neurological disorder characterized by impairments in communication, socialization, restricted movements, and language development. The purpose of this study was to design a program that utilized song-based music therapy interventions to address language development as part of a collaboration with a speech-language pathologist for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Through the analysis of current music therapy, speech-language pathology, and psychology literature, five malleable mediators were identified as having the potential to affect language development for children with ASD: (a) to develop a safe and trusting relationship with the therapist; (b) to develop imitation skills; (c) to improve turn-taking skills; (d) to develop understanding of words using the augmentative communication tools; and (e) to increase vocalization and/or verbalization. Those malleable mediators were paired with action strategies, which were identified from the literature and from the author’s clinical experience. A weekly goal-oriented music therapy intervention program was developed to address language development with children on the ASD, consisting of approximately 16 weekly 30-minute sessions divided into eight blocks. The child would progress from one block of sessions to the next once the necessary skills had been acquired. This design with target words or phrases incorporated into songs using visual materials can be used in music therapy clinical intervention contexts and can also form the basis for further research.

Book Synopsis Addressing Joint Attention Deficits with Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder by : Charles-Antoine Thibeault
Download or read book Addressing Joint Attention Deficits with Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder written by Charles-Antoine Thibeault and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study involved the development of a 12-month music therapy program addressing joint attention deficits for children 1 to 6 years old diagnosed with or suspected of having Autism Spectrum Disorder. As joint attention plays a key role in the development of social communicative skills such as language and theory of mind, its deficit can have a great impact on the life of children diagnosed with autism. Although many interventions have been developed to address this deficit in fields such as psycho-education and education, little is available in the field of music therapy. Moreover, of those interventions developed in music therapy, few involved external settings, such as homes and schools. This study used an intervention research methodology to provide appropriate guidelines for intervention with children with autism to address joint attention deficits. These guidelines include such elements as goals and objectives, including addressing joint attention responses and initiations, treatment duration, setting, intervention agent, specificities of sensory interventions with children with autism, and pertinent musical components. Results indicate that the inclusion of siblings and the use of improvisational music therapy could favor positive results. Potential implications for music therapy practice as well as areas for future research are discussed.

Book Synopsis Music Therapy, Sensory Integration and the Autistic Child by : Dorita S. Berger

This book was released on 2002-01-10 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music's ability to influence emotions and moods is universally acknowledged, and music therapists have long known that stimulating the brain through the auditory system is a key to obtaining remarkable responses. Music therapy is a particularly effective tool when working with children with autism spectrum conditions, because music communicates with these children on a level where mere words cannot go. Written in a way that is both informative for the professional and accessible for parents, this book furthers the already strong case for the use of music therapy as a resource to encourage behavioural changes for the better in children with autism spectrum conditions. Placing particular emphasis upon sensory integration, the author discusses contributing factors to the behaviour of people on the autism spectrum, and, through the use of case studies, presents the latest approaches in music therapy that are enabling children with autism spectrum conditions to better cope with sensory integration.

Book Synopsis Music, Language and Autism by : Adam Ockelford
Download or read book Music, Language and Autism written by Adam Ockelford and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 2013-04-28 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Children with autism often have an intense natural musicality. This book explains how music and language 'work' as systems of communication, and why music holds such a fascination for many young people on the autism spectrum. There are strategies for showing how music can be used to support language development and even substitute for verbal communication. Exploring the progression from a young child's intuitive engagement with music, to using it as a scaffold for communication, socialisation and understanding, the book illustrates, through the use of detailed case studies, how music nurtures a sense of self and provides a positive outlet to express inner thoughts and feelings without resorting to challenging or even destructive behaviours. Presenting an innovative approach to the use of music with people on the autism spectrum, this book will be a fascinating resource for speech and language therapists, music therapists, occupational therapists, teachers, teaching assistants, educational psychologists, carers and parents of people with autism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autism is a subject that has always fascinated and intrigued me; a closed and impenetrable universe that, after years of research, traditional and modern approaches are allowing us to understand and treat therapeutically. I tried to understand what is hidden in the mysterious and particular world of the autistic child; I wanted, therefore, to deepen this particular condition.It is extremely difficult to establish contact with these children, but the therapeutic use of music can be a more direct form of communication when the possibility of using traditional linguistic codes is lost. Music therapy, as a technique for opening communication channels, thus becomes the ideal therapy to approach autistic children. would you like to know more about autism? would you like to know more about music therapy? In the last twenty years on the national scene, as already for some time abroad, art therapies are emerging with increasing importance, or at least diffusion, and in particular music therapy which has now become a known and accredited practice.If we talk about music therapy today, we usually refer to an area of rehabilitation or treatment, which presupposes that we are in the sphere of discomfort. if you are interested and would like to know more, just click and buy this book!
