By studying infants in three groups, the hope is to identify early signals that providers may one day be able to use to improve the care for children with developmental challenges such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Families with an infant under 6-months old who meet the criteria for any of the three groups below are invited to contact [email protected] for brief screening. 1. Born weighing less than 3lb, 15oz (1800g), or: 2. With an older sibling (full or half) with a diagnosis of ASD, or: 3.

  • Abstract Autism
    Breaking Myths about Autism through Performance-ba- sed practices. An Exploratory Analysis of the Imagining Autism Approach* Sfatare alcuni miti sull'autismo attraverso le pratiche performative. Un’analisi esplorativa dell’approccio Ima- gining Autism Mabel Giraldo University of Bergamo, [email protected] Since the Seventies, the encounter between drama/theater/performance and disability has attract- ed a growing interest from both the world of art and theatrical critics and from the sciences of ed- ucation and pedagogy, engendering a fertile research field. In recent years, autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have increasibily been the object and subject of these performative experimenta- tions, riding the wave of popularity that this epidemiology is experiencing at the international level. After a preliminary review of the main approaches using participatory perfomance practices with persons with autism, this work focuses on one of these methods: Imagining Autism. Providing an overview of its history and implementation, the paper explores the use of performance-based ac- tivities and their characteristics as a venue for autism research which might contribute to de-mythol- ogize this condition by challenging well-established stereotypes. KeywordS: Autism Spectrum Disorders, Special Education, Applied Theatre, Performance, Imagining abstract Autism. Revisione sistematica 237 a. meta-analisi; b.

Therefore, I would like to thank Nicola Shau- ghnessy and Melissa Trimingham for sharing materials, ideas and documents.

(May 2009) Denise Marie Jodlowski, B.A. University of Iowa; M.A., Wake Forest University Co-Chairs of Advisory Committee: Dr. James Arnt Aune Dr. Barbara F. Sharf Autism awareness has increased in recent years in part because it is marked by confusion and controversy. The confusion and controversy stem from the fact that there are many beliefs about autism but little agreement. In this dissertation I examined the rhetoric produced by three primary groups—professional autism experts, caregivers to children with autism and mainstream media. In particular, I studied how each group explains autism. Explanations are vehicles for persuasion; they advance particular viewpoints about an illness. I conducted a rhetorical analysis of the three discourses produced by these groups, highlighting the most cohesive themes to emerge from the discourse.
