It follows a lifespan framework, guiding readers through comprehensive assessment processes at any age. The book integrates interpretations of standardized measures, information from scientific literature, and context from first-person accounts to provide a more nuanced and sensitive approach to assessment. It addresses implications for improved treatment and supports based on comprehensive assessment processes and includes case studies within each age range to consolidate and illustrate assessment processes.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKey areas of coverage include:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterdisciplinary assessment processes, including psychology, speech and language pathology, education, and health care disciplines.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifespan approach to comprehensive assessment of autism in females\/atypical autism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGuide to interpretation of standardized measures in females\/atypical autism.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditional assessment tools and processes to provide diagnostic clarity.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescriptions of barriers in diagnostic processes from first-person accounts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntervention and support strategies tied to assessment data.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn-depth explanations of evidence and at-a-glance summaries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAssessment of Autism in Females and Nuanced Presentations\u003c\/i\u003e is a must-have resource for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians, practitioners, and policymakers in developmental and clinical psychology, speech language pathology, medicine, education, social work, mental health, and all interrelated disciplines.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2023-09-10\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783031339684\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-031-33969-1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 259\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44568572362892,"sku":"9783031339684","price":143.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783031339684.jpg?v=1778005544","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9783031339684","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
