Reducing the Need for Personal Supports Among Workers with Autism Using an iPod Touch as an Assistive Technology: Delayed Randomized Control Trial / Tony GENTRY in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-3 (March 2015)
[article]
Titre : Reducing the Need for Personal Supports Among Workers with Autism Using an iPod Touch as an Assistive Technology: Delayed Randomized Control Trial Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Tony GENTRY, Auteur ; Richard KRINER, Auteur ; Adam SIMA, Auteur ; Jennifer MCDONOUGH, Auteur ; Paul WEHMAN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.669-684 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Autism spectrum disorder Assistive technology Employment Occupational therapy Vocational rehabilitation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are versatile task organizers that hold promise as assistive technologies for people with cognitive-behavioral challenges. This delayed randomized controlled trial compared two groups of adult workers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to determine whether the use of an Apple iPod Touch PDA as a vocational support improves work performance and reduces personal support needs on the job. Baseline data were collected on 50 adults with ASD who were beginning a vocational placement supported by a job coach. Participants were randomized to receive training in the use of a PDA as a vocational aid upon starting their job or after working 12 weeks without PDA support. Workers who received PDA training at the beginning of their job placement required significantly less hours of job coaching support (p = 0.013) during their first 12 weeks on the job than those who had not yet received the intervention. Functional performance between the two groups was not significantly different. The significant difference in hours of job coaching support persisted during the subsequent 12 weeks, in which both groups used a PDA (p = 0.017).

Titre : Promoting adaptive behaviors by two girls with Rett syndrome through a microswitch-based program Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fabrizio STASOLLA, Auteur ; Alessandro O. CAFFO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1265-1272 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Rett syndrome Assistive technology Locomotor behavior Indices of happiness Microswitches Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We assessed a microswitch-based program to improve self-determination to access to preferred stimuli and to foster locomotor behavior by two girls with Rett syndrome and multiple disabilities. To enhance the first behavior (access to preferred stimuli) a wobble microswitch (sensitive touch sensor) was used while for the second behavior (step responses) optic sensors were applied. A second aim of the study was to monitor indices of happiness as consequence of the use of assistive technology. Finally, a third objective of the study was the reduction of hand washing and body rocking related stereotypies. The study was carried out according to a multiple probe design across behaviors for both participants, where the two behaviors were first learned independently, then combined together. Results showed an increasing of performance and of indices of happiness and a decreasing of stereotyped behaviors for both participants during intervention phases. Practical, psychological and clinical implications of the findings are discussed.
