Aided Augmentative Communication for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders
Author: Jennifer B. Ganz
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1493908146
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Just as autism is a continuum of disorders, it is associated with a broad range of neurodevelopmental, social, and communication deficits. For individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) has a major impact on their daily lives, often reducing the occurrence of challenging behaviors. Aided Augmentative Communication for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders is a practical guide to the field, offering readers a solid grounding in ASD, related complex communication needs (CCN), and AAC, especially visual and computer-based technologies. Widely used interventions and tools in AAC are reviewed—not just how they work, but why they work—to aid practitioners in choosing those most suited to individual clients or students. Issues in evaluation for aided AAC and debates concerning its usability round out the coverage. Readers come away with a deeper understanding of the centrality of communication for clients with ASD and the many possibilities for intervention. Key areas of coverage include: AAC and assessment of people with ASD and CCN. Interdisciplinary issues and collaboration in assessment and treatment. AAC intervention mediated by natural communication partners. Functional communication training with AAC. The controversy surrounding facilitated communication. Sign language versus AAC. Aided Augmentative Communication for Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders is an essential resource for clinicians/practitioners, researchers, and graduate students in such fields as child and school psychology, speech pathology, language education, developmental psychology, behavior therapy, and educational technology.

Book Description
When an individual can't speak or has limited intelligibility, interactions with family members, friends, caregivers, and people in the community are frustrating for all involved. "Implementing Augmentative and Alternative Communication" describes how appropriate intervention can help learners overcome severe communication barriers. This comprehensive text shows how to implement communication intervention throughout the learner's day - at school, home, work, and recreation - in situations that are ecologically valid for each learner. "Implementing Augmentative and Alternative Communication" examines a variety of communicative intents and scanning selection techniques. This helpful book shows how to guide learners in the use of a range of communication intents - requesting, rejecting, and obtaining a listener's attention. It explains how learners can express communicative intents by using vocal, gestural, and graphic modes of communication. The scanning selection methods presented include basic and advanced scanning, concurrent use of direct selection and scanning methods, and auditory scanning that can be used as primary and back-up communication systems. This outstanding resource will be valuable of occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech and language pathologists, teachers, students, psychologists, administrators, and program directors. "Implementing Augmentative and Alternative Communication" is an essential tool for meeting the communication needs of persons with severe disabilities.
