Abstract:

Software Engineering is one of the most widely researched areas of Computer Science. The ability to reuse software, much like reuse of hardware components is one of the key issues in software development. The object-oriented programming methodology is revolutionary in that it promotes software reusability. This thesis describes the development of a tool that helps programmers to design and implement software from within the Smalltalk Environment (an Object- Oriented programming environment). The ASDN tool is part of the PEREAM (Programming Environment for the Reuse and Evolution of Abstract Mo

Abstract:

<p> Limited research exists on what the general population knows about ASD. Previous research that does exist shows that there is variability in what people believe as symptoms, causes, and treatments of ASD. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect that ASD training has on university students’ general knowledge about ASD. One hundred two college-aged students were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: Myths and Facts condition, Myths condition, or Control condition.

Abstract:

Impairments associated with individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have led to concerns that their typically developing brothers and sisters will be adversely affected. A literature review was conducted to examine sibling relationship quality for children and young people with a brother or sister with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). A systematic review of the literature yielded ten studies. A number of methodological issues were highlighted, thus there were few studies from which to draw firm conclusions regarding affective and interactive -' . sibling relationship quality and ASD. Th

Abstract:

The literature review explored group based psychosocial interventions for adolescents and adults with ASD. The interventions detailed in the review addressed many of the reported difficulties of ASD (i.e. social interaction, communication skills, and managing emotional distress). Fifteen studies met the inclusion criteria and almost all studies (n = 14) reported improvements in most or all of their targeted outcomes. Our ability to assess the overall benefit of group based psychosocial interventions was limited, due to small sample sizes, variation in study qualities, and the heterogeneous nat

Abstract:

The aetiology of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), a group of neurodevelopmental conditions with early onset, characterized by social and communication impairment and restricted interests, is unknown in about a third of the patients. The intense research done over the past decade has revealed a genetic contribution, while the epigenetic contribution barely begins to show. The epigenetic marks can exert an effect in gene expression without altering the underlying genetic sequence. In turn, these marks can be impaired by genetic mutations in their target sequence. Therefore, research in genomic,

Abstract:

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a lifelong neuro-developmental disorder that typically involves global impairments in social skills and in verbal and non- verbal communication, as well as the presence of stereotyped patterns of behaviours and interests (Hall, 2012). Hence, the education of young people with ASD in school settings can be challenging. In recent times, greater understandings of teaching and learning practices has provided increased efficacy, however, there remain considerable arenas where there are wide gaps in the field.

Abstract:

Triadic attention, sharing attention with a person about an object or event, typically develops between eight and 12 months of age. This ability facilitates the development of social skills and language through shared exploration of objects and social stimuli. Two key aspects of triadic attention are initiating joint attention (IJA), the use of gaze and gestures to involve another in an experience, and behavioral requesting (IBR), the use of verbal and nonverbal communication to elicit help from another. Both aspects of triadic attention are impaired in individuals with Autism Spectrum Diso

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are more prevalent in male than in female individuals and are characterised by clinical core symptoms such as impaired sociability, verbal communication and ritualistic behaviours. The gene encoding the cytoplasmic FMR1 interacting protein 1 (CYFIP1) has been associated with ASD in humans. At the molecular level, CYFIP1 has been demonstrated to negatively regulate protein synthesis and actin remodelling. At the neuronal level, Cyfip1 haploinsufficiency leads to defects in synaptic plasticity associated with alteration of dendritic spine morphology, two pathophys

Abstract:

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnoses are on the rise, increasing the likelihood of having a student with ASD in the general education classroom. Students with ASD may be included in the general education setting; however, inclusive educational experiences are negative for many students with ASD. ASD awareness interventions have been implemented to help general education students improve their attitudes, behavioral intentions, and understand their peers with ASD. In the current study, empirical articles evaluating the effectiveness of ASD awareness interventions were identified and quantifi

Abstract:

Numerous interventions have been identified by research as being effective in reducing the severity of some of the core impairments and challenging behaviours of young people with autistic spectrum disorders (ASDs) and learning difficulties. However, the literature cites significant disparity between what is demonstrated to be effective in supporting young people with ASD and challenging behaviour and the support young people and families actually receive in practice. Paper 1 examines the extent to which evidence-based practice translates into actual practice in special schools in the UK for y

Abstract:

As the number of students diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) increases, many classrooms are turning to an inclusion model of learning. To gain the perspective of program users rather than providers, this study explored parents' perceptions of the inclusion model. Pearlin's stress process model served as the theoretical framework for this study. Ten parents in Pennsylvania were recruited via snowball sampling for participation, and 7 completed the study. Parents completed a short demographic questionnaire and then participated in individual interviews. The research questions were con

Abstract:

ASD are one of the largest groups of complex neurodevelopment disorders that affect about 1-2% of the population with a greater frequency in males, in a ratio of 4.5: 1. The diagnosis of ASD is made on the basis of the clinical observation of the subject and the use of standardized assessment scales, such as ADOS and ADI-R. In recent decades, the prevalence of this disorder has increased significantly and this is thought to be due to both a better understanding of the problem and an improvement in the process and diagnostic criteria. Although numerous studies carried out to date show a conside

Abstract:

The number of students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has increased over the years and therefore it seems inevitable that school psychologists will encounter these students as part of their roles in assessment, consultation, and/or intervention. There are a multitude of articles and books on the signs and symptoms of ASD, as well as suggestions for assessment and intervention, but there are no published data related to school psychologists' knowledge, training, and roles and responsibilities for students with ASD. Therefore, the current study sought to inform the field of school psycho

Abstract:

Visual Activity Schedules (VAS) are tools that present an abstract concept, such as time, in a more concrete and manageable form. VAS allow students to anticipate upcoming events and activities, develop an understanding of time, and facilitate the ability to predict change. Prior investigations have used VAS to increase on-task behavior while enhancing the student's ability to independently make transitions from one activity to another and are particularly appropriate as they capitalize on the visual strengths exhibited by many students with autism. Mobile devices such as the iPad are becoming

Abstract:

<p> Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) – characterized by deficits in social interaction and communication, and restricted and repetitive behaviors, interests, and activities –increasingly are being diagnosed in individuals of all ages. However, as children on the autism spectrum enter adolescence, self-report research on ASD and sexuality is currently limited to 14 empirical, peer-reviewed articles, misconceptions are prevalent, and professionals remain underequipped to support their sexuality needs. The goal of the current study was to expand the current knowledge base by exploring
