This provided the basis for a taxonomic analysis to search for subgroups. Most participants also completed theory of mind tasks. Three clusters or subgroups were obtained; these differed on theory of mind performance and on verbal abilities. Although subgroups were identified which bore some relationship to clinical differentiation of autistic, Asperger syndrome, and Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (PDD-NOS) cases, the nature of the differences between them appeared strongly related to ability variables. Examination of the kinds of behaviours that differentiated the groups suggested that a spectrum of autistic disorders on which children

  • The Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre
    The Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre page 1 latrobe.edu.au/otarc VICE CHANCELLOR’S MESSAGE During 2020 the staff of the Olga Tennison Autism Research Centre (OTARC) worked valiantly to carry on with their important research and program activity while working remotely because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of the Centre’s projects had to be put on hold owing to the inability to conduct face-to-face research, while some staff were managing the dual challenge of working from home while helping their school-aged children with remote learning. Despite these challenges, the Centre still delivered successful projects during the year. A notable project was OTARC’s collaboration with the National Gallery of Victoria to develop an online art-making resource to support children with autism and help them cope with the disruption to their daily routines and their education, family and social lives caused by the pandemic. It is hoped that OTARC’s work will gradually return to normal as we come out of the COVID-19 crisis in the months ahead. The Centre will be well placed for future success following the appointment of Professor Alison Lane in late 2020 as OTARC Deputy Director and research leader for the ‘Intervention for children with autism and their families’ research theme. The difficulties of 2020 were compounded when OTARC’s magnanimous benefactor, Mrs Olga Tennison, passed away in January 2021, a few months short of her 93rd birthday. Olga’s incredible generosity has had a profound impact on the lives of people with autism and their families, and I was very saddened when I heard this news.

  • THE CHANGING CONDITIONS of CHILDHOOD: Is a Good Childhood Now at Risk?
    DISCUSSION PAPER THE CHANGING CONDITIONS OF CHILDHOOD: Is a good childhood now at risk? By David Green AM Adjunct Associate Professor, Social Work & Social Policy, La Trobe University Member, Berry Street Board of Directors May 2013 1 There is no doubt that the Australian economy has become more efficient at producing a variety of the sort of things that people want to buy, at a relatively low cost. This is good for people as consumers. But it has achieved this success at the expense of people as workers, parents and citizens. Our economic life is now harsher, more pressured, less forgiving of any shortcomings, more unequal, more insecure. Our very effective economic machine is taking us efficiently in the wrong direction. Professors Fiona Stanley, Sue Richardson & Margot Prior Children of the Lucky Country (2005: 107-108) Our society is not doing nearly well enough in translating our unprecedented economic freedom and prosperity into good outcomes for children. Professors Sue Richardson and Margot Prior No Time To Lose (2005) Acknowledgement David Green has been an esteemed member of The Berry Street Board of Directors since 2002. He brings to The Board vast knowledge and insights from an illustrious career in public life as a social worker, manager, senior executive and statutory officer in the State of Victoria, as well as from his extensive academic teaching and research experience. For many years David has been encouraging The Board and Executive of Berry Street to attend to and better understand the changing conditions and experience of childhood. When asked to develop a paper summarising his concerns for the newly established Berry Street Childhood Institute, he generously agreed.
