Seven autistic children, aged 5-8 years, with a placement within a specialist educational provision, and who demonstrated restricted play, participated in weekly sessions using the Playboxes approach over a period of 3 months. Pre- and post-approach pretend play abilities were assessed using the Symbolic Play Test and the Test of Pretend Play. Every child gained increased age-equivalent scores on the Test of Pretend Play, ranging from?+?8 to?+?30 months. Pretend Play abilities can support developmental outcomes and incorporation of this approach into regular practice could be of value for autistic children.

Prevalence of neurodevelopmental differences and autism in Scottish primary schools 2018-2022 / Marion RUTHERFORD ; Lorna JOHNSTON ; Anusua Singh ROY in Autism Research, 16-12 (December 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 16-12 (December 2023) . - p.2403-2414 Titre : Prevalence of neurodevelopmental differences and autism in Scottish primary schools 2018-2022 Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marion RUTHERFORD, Auteur ; Lorna JOHNSTON, Auteur ; Anusua Singh ROY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2403-2414 Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract This study investigated the prevalence of neurodevelopmental needs among children in primary schools in Scotland. Two groups were identified: autistic learners and a larger group of learners who had neurodevelopmental differences. These differences encompassed any need for additional support in various domains, including communication, interaction, emotional regulation, coordination, movement, and cognition. A two-phase process was employed, drawing on data from a cross-sectional study followed by a secondary analysis of a population census. In the first phase, a random sample of 688 children with additional support needs from 22 schools participated. Demographics, support characteristics, and neurodevelopmental needs were identified. Results revealed that 76.89% of children with additional support needs exhibited a need type consistent with a neurodevelopmental difference. In the second phase, data from the Scottish Government Annual Pupil Census, covering all state-provided primary school children between 2018 and 2022, were analyzed. Modeling was conducted using data from the first phase to estimate prevalence of neurodevelopmental differences. Data on autism were directly extracted from the census. Analysis revealed an increase in the prevalence of neurodevelopmental differences and autism. The prevalence of autism rose by 31.98%, with 2.60% of primary school children identified as autistic in 2022. Similarly, the prevalence of neurodevelopmental differences increased by 10.57%, with 16.22% of primary school children exhibiting such differences in 2022. Across 32 localities, regional variations in prevalence were observed. These findings show the substantial number of neurodivergent children within Scottish primary schools and emphasize the need for a neurodevelopmentally informed approach to inclusive education.

Pupils' views on visual timetables and labels in mainstream primary classrooms / Marion RUTHERFORD in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 21-2 (October 2020)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 21-2 (October 2020) . - p.11-22 Titre : Pupils' views on visual timetables and labels in mainstream primary classrooms Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marion RUTHERFORD, Auteur ; Brittany LAHOOD-KULLBERG, Auteur ; Julie BAXTER, Auteur ; Lorna JOHNSTON, Auteur ; Katie CEBULA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.11-22 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The use of visual timetables and other visual supports such as labelling materials, places and people with words, symbols and/or photos has been advocated by many to enhance communication and understanding, particularly for children with special educational needs. These are used by staff in mainstream and special settings, and parents and carers also often develop these for use at home. A number of studies have been conducted to explore the value of these from the perspective of the adults who implement them but few studies have sought to obtain the children's views. In this paper, the authors who work at Queen Margaret University (MR); within the NHS Lothian Speech and Language Therapy Department (MR); within the Additional Support for Learning Service (JB and LJ) in Edinburgh; and at the University of Edinburgh (BLK and KC) report on a study they conducted to gain the views of 109 pupils with (36) and without additional support needs (73) attending two mainstream primary schools. They conclude that most pupils in both groups found visual supports useful but that they could be more involved in deciding how these were implemented and updated.

Visual supports at home and in the community for individuals with autism spectrum disorders: A scoping review / Marion RUTHERFORD in Autism, 24-2 (February 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 24-2 (February 2020) . - p.447-469 Titre : Visual supports at home and in the community for individuals with autism spectrum disorders: A scoping review Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marion RUTHERFORD, Auteur ; Julie BAXTER, Auteur ; Zoe GRAYSON, Auteur ; Lorna JOHNSTON, Auteur ; Anne O'HARE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.447-469 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  communication and language  family functioning and support  home  visual support Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Visual supports are recommended in autism spectrum disorder clinical guidelines. They can reduce anxiety, increase predictability, support communication and improve participation. They are implemented regularly in schools, but evidence about home visual supports is limited. This article reports results of a scoping literature review, alongside qualitative evaluation with parents and professionals. We report findings from 34 studies, identifying four categories of visual support and heterogeneity in participant characteristics, intervention methods, environments and outcome measures. Qualitative data from questionnaires (n = 101) and focus groups generated key themes about home visual supports, through thematic analysis: (1) Accessibility, (2) Participation-focussed (3) Individualisation, (4) Teaching Methods, (5) Consistency, and (6) Information and Training. We propose consensus with terminology and implications for practice and research.
