However, a gap remains in our understanding surrounding VRT head-mounted displays (HMDs). As newly designed HMDs have become commercially available (in this study the Oculus Rift™) the need to investigate newer devices is immediate. This study explored willingness, acceptance, sense of presence and immersion of ASD participants. Results revealed that all 29 participants (mean age = 32; 33 % with IQ < 70) were willing to wear the HMD. The majority of the participants reported an enjoyable experience, high levels of ‘presence’, and were likely to use HMDs again. IQ was found to be independent of the willingness to use HMDs and related VRT immersion experience.

Gender Differences in Vocational Rehabilitation Service Predictors of Successful Competitive Employment for Transition-Aged Individuals with Autism / Connie SUNG in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-10 (October 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 45-10 (October 2015) . - p.3204-3218 Titre : Gender Differences in Vocational Rehabilitation Service Predictors of Successful Competitive Employment for Transition-Aged Individuals with Autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Connie SUNG, Auteur ; Jennifer SÁNCHEZ, Auteur ; Hung-Jen KUO, Auteur ; Chia-Chiang WANG, Auteur ; Michael J. LEAHY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3204-3218 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Transition  Vocational rehabilitation  Employment  Gender differences Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : As males and females with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience different symptomology, their needs for vocational rehabilitation (VR) are unique as they transition into adulthood. This study examined the effects of gender differences in VR service predictors on employment outcomes for transition-aged individuals with ASD. A total of 1696 individuals (857 males and 839 females) were analyzed from a sample of RSA-911 data of FY 2011. Hierarchical logistic regression analyses were conducted. Results revealed both gender-independent VR service predictors (with job placement and on-the-job supports more beneficial for both genders) and gender-specific predictors of employment (with counseling and guidance, job search assistance, and other services more beneficial for the male group). This study provides support for individualized gender-specific VR services for people with ASD.
