Download or read book SCIP Social Competence Intervention Program written by Laura Ann Guli and published by Research PressPub. This book was released on 2008 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SCIP is a 16-session, drama-based intervention for youth ages 8-14 on the autism spectrum. The authors blend current research from neuropsychology and information from the field of creative drama to help students accurately perceive and respond to nonverbal aspects of social interactions, such as facial expressions, body language, and tone of voice. Program sessions are divided into three parts: input, integration, and output. Input--the basic perception of social cues. Integration--how to put social cues together. Output--how to respond appropriately to others. Students are asked to participate in process dramas and take on roles that explore various outcomes. During role plays, students learn to divide complex social interactions into sequential parts, discuss the emotions involved, and act out a variety of possible responses. They also learn practical skills for dealing with teasing and understanding complex social cues. An accompanying CD of all the reproducible forms and student handouts is included with the book.
Download or read book Language Research in Post Traumatic Stress written by Yvette D. Hyter and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-25 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection brings together different perspectives on post-traumatic stress, considering its causes, its impact on different groups, and ways forward toward equipping speech-language clinicians, educators, and scholars to better understand and support the individuals and communities with which they work. The volume defines post-traumatic stress, unpacking its causes and how they might be mitigated. The 11 chapters critically reflect on the wide-ranging effects traumatic stress has on the brain, communication, language, literacy, and life skills of different groups, including children, adolescents, adults, refugees, and victims of racialized violence. This book also includes examples of interventions demonstrated to be effective with affected individuals. The range of perspectives highlights the importance of culturally responsive and trauma-informed practices and the need for language and literacy professionals to engage in transdisciplinary practice in order to develop more effective supports for those experiencing post-traumatic stress. Looking ahead, the volume discusses recommendations for curriculum content, clinical practice, and changes to policy toward ensuring all people with post-traumatic stress are able to fully participate in daily life. This book will be of interest to students and scholars in speech-language sciences, social work, occupational therapy, and clinical psychology, as well as clinicians and educators in these areas.
Download or read book Working with Child and Adolescent Mental Health The Central Role of Language and Communication written by Susan McCool and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-04 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In children, mental health challenges and communication differences typically combine in complex and inter-related ways. Remarkably, this crucial point is all too often forgotten, and communication is overlooked. Services are frequently fragmented, leading professionals to look at children through distinct lenses of either mental health or communication, meaning insights can be incomplete and important perspectives unshared. Working with Child and Adolescent Mental Health makes the compelling case that communication is central and should be a primary consideration whenever we think about children’s mental health. With a practical focus, and an easy- to-read format, it suggests how this can be achieved by identifying how practitioners and services can work more cohesively to understand and optimise children’s communication capacities. This book includes: Practical advice, grounded in current research, and presented in an easy-to-read, digestible style Guidance to help practitioners competently and compassionately identify and respond to the needs of children and young people with complex combined communication and mental health needs Real-life case studies from a wide range of settings, unpicked to clearly illustrate topics discussed in the book and offer encouragement and inspiration to practitioners Checklists and questionnaires to help practitioners in daily practice Recommendations for, and links to, useful additional resources Tools to support reflection and enhancement for individual practitioners and services Essential reading for speech and language therapists, psychologists, mental health practitioners, educators, social workers, and anyone else concerned with children’s wellbeing and resilience, this book highlights the transformational impact of placing communication at the heart of all efforts to support children and young people’s mental health.
Download or read book Time to Talk written by Jean Gross and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-21 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time to Talk provides a powerful and accessible resource for practitioners to help develop their own skills, as well as supporting a whole-school or setting approach to speaking and listening. Written by the government’s former Communication Champion for children, it showcases and celebrates effective approaches in schools and settings across the country. Jean Gross helpfully summarises research on what helps children and young people develop good language and communication skills, and highlights the importance of key factors: a place to talk, a reason to talk and support for talk. This practical and engaging book also provides: whole-class approaches to developing all children and young people’s speaking and listening skills; ‘catch-up’ strategies for those with limited language ways in which settings and schools can develop an effective partnership with specialists, such as speech and language therapists, to help children with more severe needs; examples of good practice in supporting parents/carers to develop their children’s language skills; answers to practitioners’ most frequently asked questions about speech and language. This book is for all school leaders, teachers and Early Years practitioners concerned about the growing number of children and young people with limited language and communication skills.

Download or read book Understanding Developmental Language Disorders written by Courtenay Norbury and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developmental language disorders (DLD) occur when a child fails to develop his or her native language often for no apparent reason. Delayed development of speech and/or language is one of the most common reasons for parents of preschool children to seek the advice of their family doctor. Although some children rapidly improve, others have more persistent language difficulties. These long-term deficits can adversely affect academic progress, social relationships and mental well-being.Although DLDs are common, we are still a long way from understanding what causes them and how best to.

Download or read book Pragmatic Disorders written by Louise Cummings and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This wide-ranging survey of the state of the art in clinical pragmatics includes an examination of pragmatic disorders in previously neglected populations such as juvenile offenders, children and adults with emotional and behavioural disorders, and adults with non-Alzheimer dementias. This book makes a significant contribution to the discussion of pragmatic disorders by exploring topics which have a fast-rising profile in the field. These topics include disorders in which there are both pragmatic and cognitive components, and studies of the complex impacts of pragmatic disorders such as mental health problems, educational disadvantage and social exclusion. This book also presents a critical evaluation of our current state of knowledge of pragmatic disorders. The author focuses on the lack of integration between theoretical and clinical branches of pragmatics and argues that the work of clinicians is all too often inadequately informed by theoretical frameworks. She attempts to bridge these gaps by pursuing a closer alliance of clinical and theoretical branches of pragmatics. It is claimed that this alliance represents the most promising route for the future development of the field. At once a yardstick measuring progress thus far in clinical pragmatics, and also a roadmap for future research development, this single-author volume defines where we have reached in the field, as well as where we have to go next.
