Children with autism's response to novel stimuli while participating in interventions targeting joint attention or symbolic play skills / Amanda C. GULSRUD in Autism, 11-6 (November 2007)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 11-6 (November 2007) . - p.535-546 Titre : Children with autism's response to novel stimuli while participating in interventions targeting joint attention or symbolic play skills Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Amanda C.

During the 5—8 week treatment, three novel probes were administered to determine mastery of joint attention skills. The probes consisted of auditory and visual stimuli, such as a loud spider crawling or a musical ball bouncing. The current study examined affect, gaze, joint attention behaviors, and verbalizations at three different time points of intervention. Results revealed that children randomized to the joint attention group were more likely to acknowledge the probe and engage in shared interactions between intervener and probe upon termination of intervention. Additionally, the joint attention group improved in the proportion of time spent sharing coordinated joint looks between intervener and probe. These results suggest that generalization of joint attention skills to a novel probe did occur for the group targeting joint attention and provides further evidence of the effectiveness of the joint attention intervention.

Joint attention and symbolic play in young children with autism: a randomized controlled intervention study / Connie KASARI in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 47-6 (June 2006)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 47-6 (June 2006) . - p.611–620 Titre : Joint attention and symbolic play in young children with autism: a randomized controlled intervention study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Connie KASARI, Auteur ; Stephanny FREEMAN, Auteur ; Tanya PAPARELLA, Auteur Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : p.611–620 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Intervention joint-attention symbolic-play autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Delays and deficits in joint attention and symbolic play constitute two important developmental problems in young children with autism. These areas of deficit have been well studied in autism but have rarely been the focus of treatment efforts (see Kasari, Freeman, & Paparella, 2001). In this study, we examine the efficacy of targeted interventions of joint attention and symbolic play. Methods: Participants were 58 children with autism aged 3 and 4 years (46 boys). Children were randomized to a joint attention intervention, a symbolic play intervention, or control group. Interventions were conducted 30 minutes daily for 5–6 weeks. Both structured assessments of joint attention and play skills and mother–child interactions were collected pre and post intervention by independent assessors. Results: Results indicate that both intervention groups improved significantly over the control group on certain behaviors. Children in the joint attention intervention initiated significantly more showing and responsiveness to joint attention on the structured joint attention assessment and more child-initiated joint attention in the mother–child interaction. The children in the play group showed more diverse types of symbolic play in interaction with their mothers and higher play levels on both the play assessment and in interaction with their mothers. Conclusions: This randomized controlled trial provides promising data on the specificity and generalizability of joint attention and play interventions for young children with autism. Future studies need to examine the long-term effects of these early interventions on children's development.

Predictors of Attrition in a Randomized Trial of a Social Communication Intervention for Infant-Toddlers at Risk for Autism / Kyle STERRETT in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-8 (August 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-8 (August 2023) . - p.3023-3033 Titre : Predictors of Attrition in a Randomized Trial of a Social Communication Intervention for Infant-Toddlers at Risk for Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kyle STERRETT, Auteur ; Maira Tafolla MAGAÑA, Auteur ; Amanda GULSRUD, Auteur ; Tanya PAPARELLA, Auteur ; Connie KASARI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3023-3033 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Addressing factors that make it more likely for families to attrite from early intervention trials will allow researchers to ensure that families reap the full benefits of participation. This study was an analysis of 78 children (Mage?=?18.38 months, SD?=?5.78) at risk for autism participating in a university-based randomized controlled trial of two 8-week long early intervention programs. Overall, attrition through 8-weeks was low, approximately 13%, however by the one-year follow-up attrition rates were approximately 50%. The most consistent predictor of attrition was the distance that families had to travel to the university. These data highlight the importance of providing services and support (e.g., financial and logistic) during follow-up to families to maximize their participation.
