VERSION A

How well do children with ASD, as a group, regulate their emotions? - ANSWER-Sig more
difficulty managing their emotions -> impairing function & leading to behavioral
problems

What appears is the primary contributor/correlate of dysregulation in children with ASD?
- ANSWERChildren w/ ASD engage in fewer beneficial strategies & strategies are less
effective overall

What is internalization of co-regulation? What does research suggest about how this
process operates for children with ASD? - ANSWER-when the child can regulate
themselves based on the strategies their parents used to help the regulate emotions
-does not occur until 8 years of age

What are some of the potential consequences of emotion dysregulation in this
population? - ANSWER-behavioral problems

About how common are externalizing (behavior) disorders in children with ASD? -
ANSWER-prevalence = 8 - 68%

What could at least partially contribute to the sex difference in individuals with ASD? -
ANSWER-female protective effect: girls w/ less severe symptoms either 1) mask better 2)
girls are innately better at language & social skills

What is meant by the term "evidence-based" or "empirically-supported"
practice/treatment? - ANSWER-integration of best available research with clinical
expertise
-must contain: 1) experimental control 2) manipulation of IV, random assignment

of treatment

,What does it mean to consider individual differences in treatment selection? - ANSWER-
determine what approach/services are likely to work given the child's age /
developmental functioning/ specific problems/ strengths / personality characteristics /
language / socio cultural context

How is it recommended that one balance utilizing the best available research vs. clinical
experience in their practice? - ANSWER-start w/ best research, then use clinical
expertise, if have specific reason for changing use of it (ex: ABA treatment going from 35
hrs. a week to 20hrs a week)

What are some of the main agreed upon goals of interventions for ASD? -
ANSWER1)Minimize core deficits & co-occuring associated impairments
2) Maximize functional independence by facilitating learning & acquisition of adaptive
skills
3) eliminate/minimize/prevent problem behaviors that interfere w/ functional skills

What are some recommended elements that all good interventions for ASD should
include? - ANSWER-treatments should be individualized, developmentally appropriate &
intensive w/ performance data relevant to treatment goals to evaluate & adjustment
intervention

What is the difference between a "comprehensive" vs. "focused" intervention in ASD?
What are some examples of each? - ANSWER-CTM: address broad array of symptoms
over long period of time (ex: ABA)
-FTM: limited in range of skills & delivered over short period of time (JASPER)

What is the National Autism Center's National Standards Project trying to do? -
ANSWER-designed to gather all ASD treatments and determine how efficacious they are
-established: well-studied, good evidence
-emerging: some studies, some evidence
-unestablished: either no studies, or no evidence

What do most of the interventions designated as "established" have in common? -
ANSWER-all rooted in behavioral principles (use behavioral techniques)

What are supplemental interventions for autistic individuals and what are a few of them?
- ANSWER-interventions with specific/limited goals
-Peer-mediated instruction & intervention
-video modeling
-social stories
-JASPER
-parent management training

What is facilitated communication and what has the investigation of this taught us about
the importance of researching treatments? - ANSWER-fraudulent research
-non-verbal individual placed in front of key-board, facilitator guides their hand to "help
them type" -> indicated children knew language but could not communicate their needs
-actuality: facilitator is source of message

, What areas of development/functioning tend to be the focus of most interventions? What
types of outcomes tend not to be addressed as much? - ANSWER-IQ & educational
success
-quality of life, employment, independent living, relationship skills

ANSWER-Ivar Loovas

How did the first few children treated by Lovaas' UCLA Young Autism Project (Pam and
Ricky) turn out? What lessons were learned that helped to fine-tune the intervention? -
ANSWER-initially showed gains from ABA but when support was remove -> regression of
skills
-intervention should occur early
-must be intensive,
-comprehensive,
-involve parents,
-carefully controlled (1:1 interactions),
-hierarchal programming (teach basic skills -> once mastered, move on)

What were the key elements of the intervention described in Lovaas (1987)? - ANSWER-
40hrs of ABA per week
-year 1: rudimentary skills (easy to label basic needs (people & objects: mom/dad, car,

What was the basic research design of the 1987 study and what were the main findings?
- ANSWER-quasi experimental (exp group = 40hr treatment; control group = 10hr
treatment)
