Book excerpt: Au fondement de toute forme de raisonnement et de pensée structurée, la catégorisation nous permet de comprendre et de nous adapter à notre environnement. Cette compétence est mise à mal chez les personnes atteintes de troubles du spectre autistique (TSA). Leurs difficultés à traiter les informations de manière globale, à focaliser leur attention sur l’ensemble des caractéristiques d’un stimulus afin de les réunir en un ensemble cohérent, condition nécessaire à la catégorisation, rend complexe la reconnaissance d’objets ou la compréhension de situations. Par conséquent, nous pensons qu’un entraînement à la classification allié à un travail sur la discrimination visuelle permettrait d’améliorer et de généraliser les compétences de catégorisation chez les enfants porteurs de TSA. Afin de répondre à cette question, une étude de cas de deux enfants porteurs de TSA a été réalisée. Les sujets ont chacun bénéficié de neuf séances d’entraînement, adaptées à leurs compétences cognitives et logiques, à leur niveau de communication réceptive ainsi qu’à leurs capacités de discrimination visuelle. Nous avons varié les conditions d’entraînement (lieux, expérimentateurs et matériel) afin de favoriser la généralisation des apprentissages. Suite à notre entraînement, nous avons observé une évolution partielle des compétences de classification et de catégorisation chez les sujets entraînés et une amélioration du niveau de discrimination visuelle chez l’un d’eux. De plus, notre analyse a montré une influence des variables environnementales sur les compétences de catégorisation chez les deux sujets. Certaines améliorations d’ordre comportemental ont également émergé en faveur d’un développement de leur autonomie. Ce travail nous a permis en outre, de constater le besoin manifeste de concevoir ou d’adapter des tests permettant d’évaluer le niveau logique des enfants atteints de TSA et ainsi d’ajuster les situations pédagogiques selon les besoins spécifiques de ces personnes

This book was released on 2007 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De nombreuses études se sont intéressées à l'acquisition des processus de catégorisation chez l'enfant et ont mis en évidence l'importance de cette fonction cognitive dans le développement cognitif et langagier. En revanche peu de recherches ont été menées sur les processus de catégorisation chez l'enfant autiste. Leurs troubles caractéristiques de communication verbale suggèrent pourtant un trouble de catégorisation. D'autre part, la littérature souligne l'absence de corrélation entre la catégorisation et le langage oral chez l'enfant autiste. Une autre fonction atteinte dans l'autisme semble entraver l'utilisation de ces processus dans l'acquisition du langage. Il pourrait s'agir de la flexibilité qui est indispensable à la catégorisation et déficitaire dans l'autisme. Nous avons donc mis au point un protocole d'évaluation de la catégorisation, de la flexibilité et de la communication verbale. Nous y avons inclus une épreuve informatisée élaborée pour l'évaluation de la catégorisation visuelle en raison du peu d'outil existant. Notre objectif était tout d'abord d'objectiver les compétences catégorielles des enfants autistes comparativement à une population contrôle d'enfants tout venant et déficients intellectuels appariés en âge de développement. Puis nous avons étudié les liens avec le langage et la flexibilité. Nos résultats montrent des mécanismes particuliers de catégorisation qui permettent néanmoins la réussite de tâches simples. Par ailleurs l'interdépendance entre la catégorisation et la flexibilité apparaît comme une explication raisonnable aux difficultés d'utilisation de ces mécanismes dans des situations plus complexes telles que les conversations.

This book was released on 2011-09-15 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speech and language impairments are one of the most challenging features of Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). Children with ASD are also known to be particularly responsive to music. This book makes a valuable connection between the two traits to showcase music as an effective way of enhancing the speech and language skills of children with ASD. This is a comprehensive guide to Dr. Hayoung Lim's highly effective approach of using music in speech-language training for children ASD. Part I provides a sound theoretical foundation and employs the most up-to-date research, including the author's own extensive study, to validate the use of music in speech and language training for children with ASD. Part II analyzes the clinical implications of “Developmental Speech- Language Training through Music” (DSLM) protocols and explains in detail specific interventions that can be used with the approach. The practical application of DSLM to Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) Verbal Behavior (VB) approaches is also explored. This is essential reading for music therapists, speech and language pathologists and other professionals working with children with autism, as well as researchers and academics in the field.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. population is aging, and occupational therapy practitioners working with older adults must have the skills to address multiple health issues, including vision loss. Although typical aging does not cause low vision, four major causes of vision impairment are directly related to the aging process: (1) age-related macular degeneration (AMD), (2) diabetic retinopathy, (3) glaucoma, and (4) cataracts. Instances of these impairments are expected to double by the year 2050, making low vision a significant public health issue. This Practice Guideline includes occupational therapy assessment and intervention guidelines for older adults who have visual acuity impairments, visual field impairments, or both as a result of a low vision diagnosis. Screening, referral, and evaluation are covered for clients for central visual field impairments, such as AMD and cataract; peripheral field impairments, such as glaucoma, hemianopsia, and quadrantanopsia; and mixed visual field loss, such as diabetic retinopathy. This work can help occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants, as well as individuals who manage, reimburse, or set policy regarding occupational therapy services, understand the contribution of occupational therapy to treating older adults with low vision. Appendixes include selected diagnostic and billing codes and evidence tables.

This book was released on 2009-12-29 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by A. Berthoz The publication of this volume, edited by Adriano Ferrari and Giovanni Cioni, is a major event for several reasons. Most importantly, it concerns an area of child pathology that has yet to be fully explored. In this context, the authors’ efforts to compile their observations as well as those of other clinicians and to elaborate their theories have resulted in an ess- tial step in the field of cerebral palsy (CP). The originality of the book is its very clear focus, while at the same time the authors have encouraged the book’s contributors to express their ideas and personal opinions. This leads sometimes to redundancy, but this is precisely one of the benefits of the book - cause the same problems are then exposed from different points of views. The reader is thus spared the normative attempts of many other pathology books, in which the compl- ity of a given disease is hidden by the authors’ or editors’ desire to impose a rigid taxo- my or epidemiology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although speech-language pathologists are expected to be able to administer and interpret oral examinations, there are currently no screening tests available that provide careful administration instructions and data for intra-examiner and inter-examiner reliability. The Oral Speech Mechanism Screening Examination (OSMSE) is designed primarily for use by clinical speech-language pathologists. The examination could also serve, however, as a useful tool for oral myofunctional therapists, as well as physical therapists, dentists, and orthodontists interested specifically in speech. It is reliable, relatively easy and quick to administer, and appropriate for children and adults in either diagnostic or therapy settings. The OSMSE is intended to assess those anatomical structures and physiological functions that are most often considered to be potentially related to speech or language disorders. Structural and/or functional judgments included are organized on the OSMSE test form under categories of: lips, tongue, jaw, teeth, hard palate, soft palate, pharynx, breathing, and diadochokinesis. Results of a preliminary study with normal speaking subjects indicated that the OSMSE had satisfactory intra- and inter-examiner reliability after minimal training. The time required to administer the examination typically ranged from 5 to 10 minutes. (Author/GK)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook describes the approaches to phonology that are most relevant to communication disorders. It examines schools of thought in theoretical phonology, and their relevance to description, explanation and remediation in the clinical context. A recurring theme throughout the book is the distinction between phonological theories that attempt elegant, parsimonious descriptions of phonological data, and those that attempt to provide a psycholinguistic model of speech production and perception. This book introduces all the relevant areas of phonology to the students and practitioners of speech-language pathology and is a companion volume to the authors’ Phonetics for Communication Disorders.

Book excerpt: Often thought of as a predominantly ‘male’ disorder, autism has long gone unidentified, unnoticed and unsupported in girls – sometimes with devastating consequences for their social and mental well-being. As current research reveals a much more balanced male-to-female ratio in autism, this book provides crucial insight into autistic girls’ experiences, helping professionals to recognize, understand, support and teach them effectively. Drawing on the latest research findings, chapters consider why girls have historically been overlooked by traditional diagnostic approaches, identifying behaviours that may be particular to girls, and exploring the ‘camouflaging’ that can make the diagnosis of autistic girls more difficult. Chapters emphasize both the challenges and advantages of autism and take a multidisciplinary approach to encompass contributions from autistic girls and women, their family members, teachers, psychologists and other professionals. The result is an invaluable source of first-hand insights, knowledge and strategies, which will enable those living or working with girls on the autism spectrum to provide more informed and effective support. Giving voice to the experiences, concerns, needs and hopes of girls on the autism spectrum, this much-needed text will provide parents, teachers and other professionals with essential information to help them support and teach autistic girls more effectively.

Book excerpt: This book evaluates how autism is experienced and addressed in four areas critical to the developmental phase of adulthood: self-awareness, individuality, comprehensive support systems, and the dissemination of information and expanded education. The editors present comprehensive coverage of new developments in the field of adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), particularly with regards to the updating of diagnostic criteria in the DSM-5 and an increased level of interest in research on adults with ASD. Contributors also make recommendations regarding services that should be provided to people with ASD based on recognition of their needs, the frequent lack of accessibility to relevant services, and an understanding of how a person's living situation both influences and is influenced by the way they conduct their lives. Among the topics discussed: The distinctive stage of Emerging Adulthood in individuals with ASD Late diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder Sexuality and romantic relationships among people with ASD Parents, siblings, and communities of individuals with ASD Cultural-demographic influences on life choices among people with ASD Adult women on the high-functioning autism spectrum The experience of academia and employment for people with ASD Autism in Adulthood is a unique resource for professionals, clinicians, researchers and caregivers that emphasizes both theoretical and practical information regarding ASD in the critical adult stage of life.

Book excerpt: Thickening Fat: Fat Bodies, Intersectionality, and Social Justice seeks to explore the multiple, variable, and embodied experiences of fat oppression and fat activisms. Moving beyond an analysis of fat oppression as singular, this book will aim to unpack the volatility of fat—the mutability of fat embodiments as they correlate with other embodied subjectivities, and the threshold where fat begins to be reviled, celebrated, or amended. In addition, Thickening Fat explores the full range of intersectional and liminal analyses that push beyond the simple addition of two or more subjectivities, looking instead at the complex alchemy of layered and unstable markers of difference and privilege. Cognizant that the concept of intersectionality has been filled out in a plurality of ways, Thickening Fat poses critical questions around how to render analysis of fatness intersectional and to thicken up intersectionality, where intersectionality is attenuated to the shifting and composite and material dimensions to identity, rather than reduced to an “add difference and stir” approach. The chapters in this collection ask what happens when we operationalize intersectionality in fat scholarship and politics, and we position difference at the centre and start of inquiry.

Book excerpt: A groundbreaking argument about the link between autism and ingenuity. Why can humans alone invent? In The Pattern Seekers, Cambridge University psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen makes a case that autism is as crucial to our creative and cultural history as the mastery of fire. Indeed, Baron-Cohen argues that autistic people have played a key role in human progress for seventy thousand years, from the first tools to the digital revolution. How? Because the same genes that cause autism enable the pattern seeking that is essential to our species's inventiveness. However, these abilities exact a great cost on autistic people, including social and often medical challenges, so Baron-Cohen calls on us to support and celebrate autistic people in both their disabilities and their triumphs. Ultimately, The Pattern Seekers isn't just a new theory of human civilization, but a call to consider anew how society treats those who think differently.
