These families had fewer services available to them than in many developed Western countries, and most services are at a cost to the parents. Considerations that Chinese mothers of children with autism make regarding their own employment situation are unique.

In the present study, we sent the Inventory of Potential Communicative Acts (IPCA) (Sigafoos et al. 2000a,b) to 136 families of children with AS. The IPCA aims to provide a systematic inventory and objective description of the communication forms and functions present in the child's repertoire. Seventy-nine surveys were returned and analyzed to determine differences in the number and types of communicative forms and functions in relation to the child's setting, genetic subtype, presence of epilepsy, age, and level of intellectual disability. The results showed significant differences in the forms and functions of re...

Staff should be informed about the role that their personality traits can play in their well-being. Training programmes for staff should incorporate the complex relationship between personality traits and well-being. Further studies should aim at identifying other personality traits that could increase or decrease resilience of staff working in this area.

Some tentative suggestions are made for future research to assist in the application of theory to this client group. It is argued that a more complete understanding of theory in relation to this client group will lead to the development of more effective intervention programmes.

Levels of challenging behaviours are highest in individuals with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and co-occurring intellectual disability (ID). The sample for this study consisted of 57 institutionalized adults with ID who either did or did not meet criteria for an ASD on a screening instrument [Autism Spectrum Disorders-Diagnosis for Intellectually Disabled Adults (ASD-DA)]. These two groups were compared on two parallel measures of challenging behaviour commonly used with this population: the Behavior Problems Inventory-01 (BPI-01) and Autism Spectrum Disorders-Behavior Problems for Intellectually Disabled Adults (ASD-BPA)....

Such use carries risk of physical and psychological damage. Service providers should systematically reduce the frequency of use of PI.

The identification of those service users most at risk of reactive strategy use may enable the specific targeting of therapeutic interventions that may reduce or eliminate their use.

Although restrictive interventions were used on a long-term basis, they were contingent upon a pica incident or pica attempts, which occurred much lower than in baseline sessions.

The aim of this investigation was to gather information about communication supports in state-run residential care facilities in Ohio, and to compare findings with a previous investigation on this topic examining such perceptions in group home environments.Methods An online survey was adapted from DeSimone & Cascella [Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 17, 2005, 1] to examine perceptions of habilitation managers regarding the quality of communication supports in their settings. Perceptions of communication supports by program manager-level staff in larger group residential facilities had not been previously investigated.Results Respondents reported...

Especially, health issues seem to be under-represented. Short-term goals mainly focus on gathering knowledge. Further studies are needed to clarify if professionals indeed lack detailed information about their clients or if available knowledge (e.g. in files) is not transferred into day-to-day practice.

It uses a process that involves the persons with disability, their family and friends and staff as appropriate. It is also apparent that the current provision of paid support hours by agencies is a complex phenomenon that is not based solely on individual support needs. Further research is warranted on the influence of the environment and the perceptions of need for support based on negotiable and non-negotiable support needs.

The findings show that most staff attached a different meaning to inclusion from that proposed in the Community Inclusion Framework, disagreed with the proposed meaning or felt these residents were too different for it to be meaningful. This suggests that priority will only be accorded to activities that lead to inclusion if staff are convinced of the veracity of this and given strong and consistent direction and support.
