To work effectively with individuals who have autism spectrum
disorder (ASD), SLPs and other practitioners need in-depth
knowledge on choosing and implementing interventions for
communication and social challenges. The second edition of this
bestselling textbook gives professionals the foundation they need
to evaluate and compare today’s widely used interventions—and
determine which ones will promote the best outcomes for the people
they serve. The newest volume in the respected Communication and
Language Intervention Series, this accessible text combines the
expertise of more than 30 top autism authorities across multiple
disciplines and specialties, including psychology, speech-language
pathology, early intervention, special education, and AAC. Readers
will get a thorough introduction to 14 evidence-based
interventions, complete with key details on each intervention’s
theoretical and empirical basis, components, practical
requirements, applications for both children and adults, and
considerations for children from diverse cultural and linguistic
backgrounds. Twelve video clips (available for streaming)
illustrate the interventions in action, and highly relevant
learning activities prepare SLPs and other practitioners to make
sound decisions in scenarios they’re likely to encounter in the
field. WHAT’S NEW: New chapter on assessment for treatment
planning and progress monitoring New chapter on language and
communication strengths and challenges often seen in children with
ASD New in-depth profiles of three interventions not covered in the
last edition: the Early Start Denver Model, The SCERTS® Model, and
Social Skills Interventions Videos to demonstrate the newly added
interventions Updates to reflect the DSM-5, which includes
significant changes to the definition of ASD and new diagnostic
criteria More information on inclusive practices Expanded
discussion on working with children from culturally and
linguistically diverse backgrounds A sample syllabus that
demonstrates how faculty can integrate this book into a course

Disorder, available for purchase as a bundle with the textbook
