This handbook identifies the various social deficiencies widely
associated with children and youth diagnosed with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD). It discusses possible causes as well as the
lifelong effects if these deficiencies are not addressed. The
handbook presents current behavioral and curriculum-based methods
for assessing social deficits. Chapters examine the various
interventions that have been used to improve social skills and
behavior, including video modeling, peer-mediated interventions,
and script fading. Chapters also assess various interventions using
empirically based procedures, evaluate the research of each of
these procedures, provide guidelines for treatment planning, and
offer clinical recommendations. The handbook concludes with future
directions for the development of both social behavior and clinical
social skills interventions. Topics featured in the Handbook
include: Impairments in social behavior that may result in negative
outcomes such as depression, loneliness, and suicide in individuals
with ASD. Bullying among youth with ASD. Behavioral skills training
to promote social behavior of individuals with ASD. The Early Start
Denver Model approach to helping young children with ASD. The
implementation of social skills groups for individuals diagnosed
with ASD. The Handbook of Social Skills and Autism Spectrum
Disorder is a must-have resource for researchers,
clinicians/professionals, and graduate students in clinical child,
school, and developmental psychology, behavioral therapy, and
social work, as well as such interrelated disciplines as child and
adolescent psychiatry, rehabilitation medicine/therapy, pediatrics,
and special education/educational psychology.
