Children are being diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders at a
staggering rate-as many as one in 110, according to some studies.
To this sobering statistic add the familiar figures of the toddler
disengaged from his peers, the middle schooler shunned in the
lunchroom, and the adult struggling with social cues on the job,
and professionals are faced with a mounting challenge: to assist
and support young people with these disorders to ensure their
successful transition to adolescence and adulthood. The first
volume dedicated solely to its topic, Interventions for Autism
Spectrum Disorders provides a comprehensive overview of programs
currently in use. Contributors explore programs focusing on
long-term outcomes, home- and classroom-based strategies,
resilience training for parents, and pharmacological management of
symptoms. Background chapters review issues in reliability and
validity of interventions and evaluating treatment effectiveness.
And an especially cogent chapter discusses the centrality of
treatment integrity to best practice. Comprehensive programs and
targeted interventions covered include: The Early Start Denver
Model for young children. The TEACCH program for children, adults,
and families. The Center for Autism and Related Disorders (CARD)
and CARD eLearning. PROGress: a program for remediating and
expanding social skills. Evidence-based strategies for repetitive
behaviors and sensory issues. Self-regulation strategies for
students with autism spectrum disorders. Interventions for Autism
Spectrum Disorders is an essential resource for researchers,
professionals/practitioners, and clinicians in a wide array of
fields, including clinical child, school, and developmental
psychology; child and adolescent psychiatry; education;
rehabilitation medicine/therapy; social work; and pediatrics.
