Important questions surround the condition: how early can an accurate diagnosis be made? At what age should intervention start? How can parents recognize warning signs? And what causes autism in the first place?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are no easy answers, but the \u003ci\u003eHandbook of Early Intervention for Autism Spectrum Disorders\u003c\/i\u003e gives researchers, practitioners, and academics the science and guidance to better understand and intervene. Background chapters survey the history of professional understanding of the disorders and the ongoing debate over autism as a single entity or a continuum. Chapters on best methods in screening, assessment, and diagnosis reflect the transition between the DSM-V and older diagnostic criteria. And at the heart of the book, the intervention section ranges from evidence-based strategies for developing core skills to ethical concerns, cultural considerations, and controversial treatments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncluded in the \u003ci\u003eHandbook\u003c\/i\u003e's broad-based coverage:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigning curriculum programs for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMainstream education for children with ASD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeaching independent living skills to children with ASD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocial skills and play.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBehavioral and mental health disorders in children with ASD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining and supporting caregivers in evidence-based practices. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTeaching cognitive skills to children with ASD. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eHandbook of Early Intervention for Autism Spectrum Disorders\u003c\/i\u003e is a comprehensive reference for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians and other scientist-practitioners in clinical childand school psychology, child and adolescent psychiatry, social work, rehabilitation, special education, and pediatric medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-09-03\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781493951932\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4939-0401-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 254cm x178cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 653\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45228063162508,"sku":"9781493951932","price":404.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781493951932.jpg?v=1776518896","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9781493951932","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
