Book Derived Relational Responding Applications for Learners with Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities

Download or read book Derived Relational Responding Applications for Learners with Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities written by Ruth Anne Rehfeldt and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2009-04-02 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Copublished with Context Press Derived Relational Responding offers a series of revolutionary intervention programs for applied work in human language and cognition targeted at students with autism and other developmental disabilities. It presents a program drawn from derived stimulus relations that you can use to help students of all ages acquire foundational and advanced verbal, social, and cognitive skills. The first part of Derived Relational Responding provides step-by-step instructions for helping students learn relationally, acquire rudimentary verbal operants, and develop other basic language skills. In the second section of this book, you'll find ways to enhance students' receptive and expressive repertoires by developing their ability to read, spell, construct sentences, and use grammar. Finally, you'll find out how to teach students to apply the skills they've learned to higher order cognitive and social functions, including perspective-taking, empathy, mathematical reasoning, intelligence, and creativity. This applied behavior analytic training approach will help students make many substantial and lasting gains in language and cognition not possible with traditional interventions.

Book Arbitrary Conditional Discrimination and Stimulus Equivalence with Young Children Within the Classroom Setting

Download or read book Arbitrary Conditional Discrimination and Stimulus Equivalence with Young Children Within the Classroom Setting written by Emily Leonard and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current series of experiments investigated the formation of equivalence classes with young children in classroom settings. Nine visual stimuli were divided into three groups (A, B, and C) each containing three stimuli (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2, B3, C1, C2, C3). All participants were pretested on all possible stimulus-stimulus relations. Then conditional discrimination training was used to teach a few stimulus-stimulus relations (i.e., the AB and AC relations). Following training, participants were posttested on all stimulus-stimulus relations to determine if untrained relations emerged indicating the formation of equivalence classes. Experiment 1 demonstrated the emergence of stimulus-stimulus relations consistent with stimulus equivalence among stimuli from the third-grade science curriculum of a boy with autism. Experiment 2 was a systematic replication of Experiment 1 with six third-graders. Finally, Experiment 3 replicated the findings of Experiment 2 with kindergarten students. Results indicated the emergence of match-to-sample performances, suggesting that these methods could be applied both as an efficient primary teaching technique and as a remediation technique for young children in the classroom setting.

Book Guidelines for the Care and Use of Mammals in Neuroscience and Behavioral Research

Download or read book Guidelines for the Care and Use of Mammals in Neuroscience and Behavioral Research written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2003-08-22 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expanding on the National Research Council's Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, this book deals specifically with mammals in neuroscience and behavioral research laboratories. It offers flexible guidelines for the care of these animals, and guidance on adapting these guidelines to various situations without hindering the research process. Guidelines for the Care and Use of Mammals in Neuroscience and Behavioral Research offers a more in-depth treatment of concerns specific to these disciplines than any previous guide on animal care and use. It treats on such important subjects as: The important role that the researcher and veterinarian play in developing animal protocols. Methods for assessing and ensuring an animal's well-being. General animal-care elements as they apply to neuroscience and behavioral research, and common animal welfare challenges this research can pose. The use of professional judgment and careful interpretation of regulations and guidelines to develop performance standards ensuring animal well-being and high-quality research. Guidelines for the Care and Use of Mammals in Neuroscience and Behavioral Research treats the development and evaluation of animal-use protocols as a decision-making process, not just a decision. To this end, it presents the most current, in-depth information about the best practices for animal care and use, as they pertain to the intricacies of neuroscience and behavioral research.

Book Educating Children with Autism

Download or read book Educating Children with Autism written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-11-11 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Autism is a word most of us are familiar with. But do we really know what it means? Children with autism are challenged by the most essential human behaviors. They have difficulty interacting with other people-often failing to see people as people rather than simply objects in their environment. They cannot easily communicate ideas and feelings, have great trouble imagining what others think or feel, and in some cases spend their lives speechless. They frequently find it hard to make friends or even bond with family members. Their behavior can seem bizarre. Education is the primary form of treatment for this mysterious condition. This means that we place important responsibilities on schools, teachers and children's parents, as well as the other professionals who work with children with autism. With the passage of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act of 1975, we accepted responsibility for educating children who face special challenges like autism. While we have since amassed a substantial body of research, researchers have not adequately communicated with one another, and their findings have not been integrated into a proven curriculum. Educating Children with Autism outlines an interdisciplinary approach to education for children with autism. The committee explores what makes education effective for the child with autism and identifies specific characteristics of programs that work. Recommendations are offered for choosing educational content and strategies, introducing interaction with other children, and other key areas. This book examines some fundamental issues, including: How children's specific diagnoses should affect educational assessment and planning How we can support the families of children with autism Features of effective instructional and comprehensive programs and strategies How we can better prepare teachers, school staffs, professionals, and parents to educate children with autism What policies at the federal, state, and local levels will best ensure appropriate education, examining strategies and resources needed to address the rights of children with autism to appropriate education. Children with autism present educators with one of their most difficult challenges. Through a comprehensive examination of the scientific knowledge underlying educational practices, programs, and strategies, Educating Children with Autism presents valuable information for parents, administrators, advocates, researchers, and policy makers.
