Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 38-2 (June 2023) . - p.137-143 Titre : Self-Determination Development Among College Students With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities: A Longitudinal Study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ayse TORRES, Auteur ; Kelly B.

Another skill set that may be strengthened by attending an IPSE program is self-determination. There is limited research available identifying the impact of IPSE programs on self-determination growth. We addressed this gap by using a longitudinal study designed to examine the changes in self-determination levels of students with IDD across 3 years in an IPSE program. Data collected from 23 students with IDD at 4 points of time within 3 years showed that there was an increasing trend in students' self-determination levels at the end of each year. The difference was highly significant between the baseline and the end of the third year. This suggests that IPSE programs can play a critical role in the improvement of the self-determination levels in students with IDD. Implications and future research are discussed.

Using an Instructional Package to Support Adults with Autism in Communicating with a Medical Provider / Jacqueline WOOD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 56-4 (April 2026)

KEARNEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1283-1295 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience co-occurring physical and mental health challenges throughout their lives. At the same time, they frequently face many barriers to accessing proper care. Strategies to improve communication and understanding can help to mitigate some of these barriers. This study examined the effects of an instructional package, including a video module accompanied by guided notes, the Autism Healthcare Accommodations Tool (AHAT), and behavior skills training (BST) to teach adults with autism to communicate their unique needs and request accommodations to a medical provider. Three participants independently completed a self-guided video module that modeled how to complete the guided notes and AHAT to identify appropriate accommodations and prepare for a doctor’s appointment. Once finished, participants were taught to verbalize their needs and accommodations through BST. Results showed that participants’ communication skills increased after introducing the instructional package, generalized to a novel provider and maintained once the instructional package was removed. This intervention proved to be an effective and socially valid method to improve communication for adults with autism in medical settings. Implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

The CNC procedure was administered remotely during this study. The specific social skills targeted were asking open-ended questions and responding appropriately to a conversation partner?s answers. All participants significantly increased the accuracy of the targeted social skills after receiving the intervention. The skills also maintained at relatively high levels once the intervention was removed. Future research and implications are discussed.
