Download or read book Overcoming Autism written by Lynn Kern Koegel, Ph.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been huge advances in our ability to diagnose autism and in the development of effective interventions that can change children’s lives. In this extraordinary book, Lynn Kern Koegel, a leading clinician, researcher, and cofounder of the renowned Autism Research Center at the University of California at Santa Barbara, combines her cutting-edge expertise with the everyday perspectives of Claire LaZebnik, a writer whose experience with a son with autism provides a rare window into the disorder. Together, they draw on the highly effective “pivotal response” approach developed at the center to provide concrete ways of improving the symptoms of autism and the emotional struggles that surround it, while reminding readers never to lose sight of the humor that lurks in the disability’s quirkiness or the importance of enjoying your child. From the shock of diagnosis to the step-by-step work with verbal communication, social interaction, self-stimulation, meltdowns, fears, and more, the answers are here-in a book that is as warm and nurturing as it is authoritative.

Download or read book The Triarchic Mind written by Robert J. Sternberg and published by Viking Adult. This book was released on 1988 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychologist Sternberg explains the evolution of theories of intelligence and introduces within this historical context his own theory. His theory invokes components of three kinds: metacomponents--processes involved in planning, monitoring, and evaluating problem-solving activities; performance components--lower-order processes put into play to implement commands of the metacomponents; and knowledge acquisition components--activities instrumental in learning how to solve problems. Sternberg defines intelligence as mental self-management and shows how it is used both in day-to-day problem-solving and in the world of executive decisionmaking, and how it can be nurtured at any age. Sternberg criticizes both traditional notions of intelligence and intelligence tests. ISBN 0-670-80364-2: $19.95.

Download or read book The Skills of Argument written by Deanna Kuhn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-07-26 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Skills of Argument presents a comprehensive empirical study of informal reasoning as argument, involving subjects across the life span. Subjects ranging in age from adolescence to late adulthood were asked to describe their views on social problems that people have occasion to think and talk about in everyday life, such as crime and unemployment. In addition to providing supporting evidence for their theories, subjects were asked to contemplate alternative theories and counterarguments and to evaluate new evidence on the topics. This is the first major study of informal reasoning across the life span. Highlighting the importance of argumentive reasoning in everyday thought, the book offers a theoretical framework for conceptualizing and studying thinking as argument. The findings address issues of major importance to cognitive and developmental psychologists, as well as educators concerned with improving the quality of people's thinking. The work is also relevant to philosophers, political scientists, and linguists interested in informal reasoning and argumentive discourse.
