When you're working with preverbal children on the autism spectrum,
you need a complete toolbox of highly effective strategies to
expand their communication skills. Add Rapid Motor Imitation
Antecedent Training (RMIA) , and you'll have one of the most
promising interventions for helping young children say their first
words. A discrete trial intervention approach for preschoolers with
autism who have severe language delays, RMIA is a crucial step on
the path to improved communication function. It's an easy-to-use
method: children imitate a rapid series of simple motor actions and
are then asked to imitate a word. The momentum they build by
performing the easy motor actions helps them comply with the more
difficult task of word production. A must for SLPs and autism
specialists, RMIA is an ideal addition to your current lineup of
strategies and supports: Experimentally tested at the Yale Child
Study Centre, one of the nation's top autism treatment centres.
Originally developed since 2002 at Teachers College, Columbia
University and proven effective for helping young children develop
functional speech. Perfect to use in tandem with naturalistic
interventions like Parent Responsiveness Training. Focused
specifically on initial imitation of words-a critical step toward
using language spontaneously. Quick and easy to implement-RMIA
should be administered in short, frequent doses, making it an easy
fit with your everyday practices. The only product available that
shows SLPs and autism specialists how to conduct RMIA, this
manual-and-CD set gives you everything you need for successful
implementation. You'll get complete, practical guidance in the
accessible how-to manual, and the CD-ROM gives you a full hour of
explicit demonstration videos that show case studies of RMIA in
action. You'll also get printable data collection forms to help
organise RMIA sessions and assist in data keeping (both blank forms
and completed samples). A key component of your comprehensive
intervention program for social communication, RMIA will help young
preverbal children overcome the hurdles to saying their first
words-and start making real progress toward communicative
competence.
