The study is underpinned by the theological premise that honours the inherent value and worth of all human beings as carriers of the Imago Dei – created in the image of God. When the life context of someone prevents the intellectual, communicative or social ingredients generally associated with traditional spiritual or religious involvement, the possibility of a different experience or expression must be considered. This research explored such a possibility through the context of people diagnosed with severe autism, who do not communicate by the use of oral speech. People with nonverbal autism are identified as being on the severe end of the autism spectrum.

  • Study of Nonverbal Autism Must Go Beyond Words, Experts Say
    Spectrum | Autism Research News https://www.spectrumnews.org NEWS Study of nonverbal autism must go beyond words, experts say BY SARAH DEWEERDT 2 SEPTEMBER 2013 Sound out: Interactive devices do not hinder nonverbal children with autism from learning to speak, and may even help them. Roughly 25 percent of people with autism speak few or no words. A generation ago, that figure was closer to 50 percent. Most researchers agree that the decline is due to the recognition of more people with milder forms of autism, as well as to the advent of early intervention programs that have helped more children develop language than in the past. “One of the primary success stories of early interventions is that they promote language development,” says Helen Tager-Flusberg, director of the Research on Autism & Developmental Disorders program at Boston University. “Nevertheless,” she says, “there are clearly individuals who are diagnosed early, do have access to high-quality interventions, and still fail to acquire spoken language.” Paradoxically, many researchers now argue that in order to better understand and treat this subgroup of nonverbal people with autism, the field needs to move beyond focusing on speech production. Emerging research suggests that seemingly unrelated issues, such as motor skills and joint attention, may instead be key. Language delay gets a lion’s share of the attention perhaps because it is often the first and most 1 / 4 Spectrum | Autism Research News https://www.spectrumnews.org compelling sign of autism. “Parents, pediatricians, psychologists — everyone, we all focus on word production,” says Joe McCleery, lecturer in developmental neuroscience at the University of Birmingham in the U.K.

Identification of vitamin D-ASD factors may provide indications for primary and secondary prevention interventions. We systematically reviewed the literature for studies on vitamin D-ASD relationship, including potential mechanistic pathways. We identified seven specific areas, including: latitude, season of conception/birth, maternal migration/ethnicity, vitamin D status of mothers and ASD patients, and vitamin D intervention to prevent and treat ASD. Due to differences in the methodological procedures and inconsistent results, drawing conclusions from the first three areas is difficult. Using a more direct measure of vitamin D status—that is, serum 25(OH)D level during pregnancy or childhood—we found growing evidence for a relationship between vitamin D and ASD.
