Abstract:
In part as a result of federal legislation in the 1980s and 1990s, preschoolers with disabilities and their families increasingly have access to augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices. However, to date much is still to be learned about the degree to which various factors impact the many decisions inherent in prescribing AAC devices for these children. This survey of the 58 Part H coordinators throughout the nation queried respondents on services provided; factors considered during evaluation; the role of families in this process; and the consideration of the characteristics of the child, the technology, and the service system. The results are discussed in light of the necessity for sensitivity on the part of professionals to family issues.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to explore family caregivers' perceptions of the use of assistive technology to manage care, through secondary analysis of data from the Healthy@home 2.0 survey. An online survey conducted by Knowledge Panel (KP) was distributed via email invitation to those who met the qualifications for the sample. The data was collected between November 22 and November 29,2010. The sample (N = 1, 152) consisted of caregivers between the ages of 45 to 75 years. This study examined a total of 31 questions assessing caregivers' actual use, awareness, willingness, enablers, and barriers to assistive technology. Assistive technologies have become crucial when caring for patients at home. Assistive technologies can help cut healthcare cost by shorter hospital stay and assist the elderly to continue to live independently at home and caring for themselves or with the help of family members. The findings highlighted that most participants are willing to use the assistive technologies despite a high reporting of barriers. Despite some limitations in this study, these highlighted findings will present some understanding into the perception of assistive technologies in the caregivers.

Resumo: A família tem um importante papel socializador e fundamental para a formação dos primeiros vínculos afetivos, para o desenvolvimento da aprendizagem e para a constituição do sujeito preparando-o para a vida. A qualidade das interações está relacionada ao ajustamento emocional e comportamento de cada um na dinâmica familiar que pode contribuir para a percepção quanto as suas potencialidades e dificuldades. Recursos como a Tecnologia Assistiva (TA) favorecem a autonomia, a independência funcional e as interações sociais e familiares, facilitam o acesso à educação e ao trabalho, podendo ser aplicados em vários contextos melhorando a qualidade de vida do usuário. Esse estudo teve como objetivo conhecer as características dos familiares de pessoas com comprometimento motor grave e as suas expectativas em relação ao uso do sistema AUXILIS. A investigação de caráter qualitativo contou com amostra constituída por seis familiares previamente selecionados para participarem do Projeto AUXILIS do CTI/MCT, sendo quatro mães e duas avós maternas com idades entre 38 e 57 anos que realizavam a função de principal cuidador de seus filhos e netos com comprometimento motor grave e sem possibilidade de uso convencional do computador devido a limitações físicas. O registro das informações se deu em uma das instituições parceiras do Projeto AUXILIS por meio de entrevistas semidirigidas gravadas e transcritas. As informações foram agrupadas em quatro categorias temáticas e analisadas conforme a técnica de análise de conteúdo. As expectativas apresentadas em relação ao uso de tecnologia assistiva desenvolvida em tecnologia da informação se referem ao desejo de que o filho/neto desenvolva a comunicação e a autonomia, melhore a autoestima e adquira ou aprimore habilidades sociais e escolares. Insegurança quanto à capacidade dos filhos/netos no uso do recurso, a possibilidade deles se tornarem totalmente independente, a possibilidade de frustração dessas expectativas familiares, o sentimento de culpa e a busca por reparação também estavam presentes nos relatos
Abstract: The family has an important role socialization and fundamental to the formation of the first affective ties to the development of learning and the constitution of the subject preparing him for life. The quality of interactions is related to emotional adjustment and behavior of each one in the family dynamics that may contribute to the perception of its strengths and difficulties. Features such as the Assistive Technology (AT) favor the autonomy, functional independence and social and family interactions, facilitate access to education and work, can be applied in various contexts by improving the quality of life of the user. This study aimed to understand the characteristics of family members of people with severe motor impairment and their expectations regarding the use of the AUXILIS System. The research included a qualitative sample of six family members previously selected to participate in the AUXILIS Project, CTI/MCT, four mothers and two grandmothers aged 38 and 57 years who performed the role of primary caregiver for their children and grandchildren severe motor impairment with and without the possibility of using conventional computer due to physical limitations. The recording of information was in one of the partner institutions of the AUXILIS Project through semistructured interviews recorded and transcribed. The data were grouped into four thematic categories and analyzed according to the technique of content analysis. The expectations presented regarding the use of assistive technology developed in information technology refers to the desire that the child/grandchild develop communication and independence, improve self-esteem and acquire or enhance social skills and school. Uncertainty regarding the ability of children/grandchildren in resource use, the possibility of them becoming fully independent, the possibility of frustration these family expectations, feelings of guilt and the search for repair were also present in the reports

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Var tredje sekund drabbas en person av en demenssjukdom i världen. De flesta av dessa bor kvar hemma i flera år och blir vårdade av en anhörig. Enligt svensk lag ska anhöriga erbjudas anhörigstöd av sin hemkommun. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa anhörigas upplevelse av stöd för att vårda närstående med demenssjukdom i hemmet. Metod: En litteraturöversikt baserad på kvalitativa vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultat: I sammanställningen av 10 kvalitativa vetenskapliga artiklar framkom tre kategorier: upplevelse av personlig information, upplevelse av vardagligt stöd samt upplevelse av reflektion. Anhöriga upplevde informationsbrist om att det fanns stöd att tillgå i vårdandet av sin närstående med demenssjukdom i hemmet, och hur de får tillgång till dessa stöd. De anhöriga som däremot fått information om stöd uppskattade också stöden då det bidrog till avlastning i vardagen och bättre livskvalitet. Dessutom upplevde anhöriga att stödet hade bidragande faktorer till att klara av vardagen. Många anhöriga hade en positiv upplevelse av att få stöd i skriftlig, muntlig och gruppvis form, ett stöd som också gav upphov till reflektion. Slutsats: Att vårda sin närstående med demenssjukdom kan vara både fysiskt och psykiskt påfrestande, vilket gör att behovet av stöd är viktigt för den anhöriga. Stöd till anhöriga behöver komma in i ett tidigt skede, men eftersom behovet av stöd ändras över tid krävs också kontinuerlig uppföljning för att en tillräcklig omvårdnad ska upprätthållas.
Background: Every three seconds, a person in the world suffers from dementia. Most of these stay at home for several years and are cared for by a relative. According to Swedish law, relatives must be offered relative support by their home municipality. Aim: The aim was to shed light on relatives' experience of support for caring for relatives with dementia at home. Method: A literature review based on qualitative scientific articles. Results: In the compilation of 10 qualitative scientific articles, three categories emerged: experience of personal information, experience of everyday support and experience of reflection. Relatives experienced a lack of information that there was support available in the care of a close relative with dementia at home, and how they get access to this support. The relatives who, on the other hand, received information about support also appreciated the support as it contributed to relief in everyday life and a better quality of life. In addition, relatives felt that the support had contributing factors to coping with everyday life. Many relatives had a positive experience of receiving support in written, oral and group form, a support that also gave rise to reflection. Conclusion: Caring for a close relative with dementia can be both physically and mentally stressful, which means that the need for support is important for the relative. Support for relatives needs to come in at an early stage, but since the need for support changes over time, continuous follow-up is also required in order maintain adequate care.

Abstract:
A configuração tradicional da família, composta pela família nuclear (pai/homem, mãe/mulher e filhos) vem sofrendo transmutações cada vez mais evidentes durante as últimas décadas. No Brasil, a luta pela normatização social e legislativa do casamento entre pessoas do mesmo sexo vem sendo travada e a vivência da parentalidade tem se tornado parte da luta de casais de mesmo sexo. Nesse sentido, um número crescente de famílias homoparentais passam a ser efetivamente formadas. As Novas Tecnologias Reprodutivas (NTR), assim como a adoção, fazem parte dos meios que esses casais têm utilizado para a concretização do sonho da parentalidade. As NTR são um produto médico de consumo que, ao desvincular sexo e reprodução, coloca esta última como questão de escolha, possibilitando diferentes arranjos parentais via compra de intervenção tecnológica. Dentro desse contexto, o estudo centrou-se nas concepções dos casais de mesmo sexo sobre o uso de NTR na efetivação do projeto de parentalidade. O estudo de natureza qualitativa foi realizado com casais de mesmo sexo, tanto de homens como de mulheres, que tinham o plano de terem filhos ou que já os tivessem tido. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com um grupo de 26 pessoas composto por 12 casais e dois sujeitos (um homem e uma mulher), todos residentes na Região Metropolitana de São Paulo, Brasil, entre os anos de 2011 e 2012. Os resultados apontam que os laços biológicos se fazem preponderantes nos discursos dos casais de mulheres, bem como há uma maior tendência destas a utilizarem/quererem utilizar as NTR, principalmente a ROPA (Recepção de Óvulos da Parceira). Os casais de homens, mesmo quando apontam para o desejo de terem um filho geneticamente aparentado, optam pelo recurso da adoção, dentre outros motivos, pelo receio do vínculo que possa ser estabelecido, por meio da gestação, entre a mãe de aluguel e a criança. A análise produzida a partir dos dados empíricos contribui para o debate sobre a relação entre famílias homoparentais e uso de tecnologias médicas. Isso porque problematiza como as NTR incorporam mudanças fundamentais no parentesco contemporâneo ocidental, e como a medicina e a sociedade caminham juntas na construção de novos significados acerca da parentalidade, num movimento em que natureza e cultura imiscuem-se tornando-se cada vez mais difícil e contraprodutivo separá-las
Family\'s traditional configuration, composed by the nuclear family (father/man, mother/woman and children) has been passing through evident transmutations during the last decades. In Brazil, the fight for social and legal standardizations of same-sex marriage has been occurring and the experience of parenthood has become part of the fight of same-sex couples. In this sense, homoparental families begin to be effectively formed. New Reproductive Technologies (NRT), as adoption, make part of the resources that these couples have been using to fulfill their dream of parenthood. NRT are a medical consumer product, which unlinking sex and reproduction make reproduction a matter of choice, enabling different parenthood arrangements through purchase of technological intervention. In this context, the study focused the same-sex couples conceptions about the use of NRT in their parenthood´s project effectiveness. The qualitative study was developed with same-sex couples, both men and women, who had plans to have children or have already had them. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 26 respondents, composed by 12 couples and two subjects, resident in the metropolitan area of São Paulo, Brazil, between 2011 and 2012. The results point out the preponderance of biological bond in female couples speeches and that there is a tendency of such couples to use/want to use NRT, mainly ROPA (Reception of Oocytes from Partner). Male couples, even when they show the desire to have a genetically related child, choose adoption, among other reasons, for the fear of the bond that may be established through pregnancy between the surrogate mother and the child. The analysis produced from empirical data contributes to the debate about the relationship between homoparental families and the use of medical technologies, once it discusses how NRT incorporate fundamental changes in occidental contemporary kinship and how medicine and society walk together building new meanings to parenthood in a process that nature and culture encroach up, turning increasingly difficult and counter-productive to separate them

Abstract:
En les últimes dècades, la reproducció i la sexualitat estan en un procés de separació sobre la base d'una nova concepció de l'espai de la dona: la seva entrada a tots els nivells d’educació formal, d’ocupació i activitat política i l'ús de mètodes anticonceptius i noves tecnologies reproductives, que permeten una maternitat triada, com és el cas de dones lesbianes. Les tècniques de reproducció assistida (TRA) han permès l'aparició de noves formes de família, més enllà dels límits biològics, com ara la infertilitat i els imposats per la cultura. Ser mare i lesbiana suposa combinar dues identitats suposadament contradictòries. Dins el binomi de “mare lesbiana” conflueixen una identitat històricament i socialment marginada com ho és la de lesbiana amb una de les més reverenciades, la de mare. La present recerca s’ha aproximat des d’una perspectiva antropològica a les maternitats de les dones lesbianes a Catalunya. S’ha realitzat una recerca etnogràfica a partir d’històries de vida de diferents famílies lesboparentals, tenint en compte una sèrie de variables com la pertinença o no a una associació de famílies, edat de les dones, tècniques de reproducció assistida utilitzades per accedir a la maternitat, etc. S’han realitzat històries de vida a setze famílies. Les participants en la recerca són dones d’entre 30 i 60 anys. L’objectiu general de la recerca ha estat analitzar la construcció cultural i les pràctiques de famílies formades per dones lesbianes en el context de la societat catalana. Des de les experiències de les pròpies dones es pretén mostrar el procés sociocultural en el qual les participants han construït les seves maternitats en aquest moment temporal. Aquesta investigació planteja de quina manera les maternitats passen pels cossos de les dones, uns cossos múltiples: de dones, de lesbianes i de mares. Es traça un recorregut pel procés de les seves maternitats: des del moment en què prenen la decisió de ser mares, com decideixen fer-ho (les TRA utilitzades), el temps d’espera fins a la confirmació de l’embaràs, el moment de l’arribada del nadó (part i lactància) i com les maternitats canvien els seus projectes personals i familiars (“la sortida de l’armari”). Es parla de les experiències de les dones lesbianes que utilitzen les TRA (tècniques de reproducció assistida) per quedar-se embarassades, es parla de la mare gestant i la mare social. L’enfocament de gènere ha permès explorar la visió binària i heterosexista que travessa els protocols i l’atenció biomèdica en aquests casos i la manera com les dones lesbianes donen significat a les seves experiències d’atenció. Actualment estudiar a les famílies lesboparentals és un repte i una oportunitat alhora. Un repte perquè no hi ha molts estudis que tractin aquest tema i una oportunitat perquè el reconeixement legal ha permès la visibilitat de moltes famílies de dones lesbianes, que fins fa poc encara estaven dins de "l'armari".
In recent decades, reproduction and sexuality are trialing a process of separation, thanks to a new understanding of woman's space: her participation, at all levels, in formal education, political activity as well as the use of contraceptive methods and new reproductive technologies facilitating more choices for motherhood - as is the case for many Lesbian women. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) has allowed new forms of families, beyond biological limits, beyond the ones now imposed by infertility and culture. To be a mother and a lesbian means to combine two identities supposedly contradictory. In the binomial expression "Lesbian mother" two different identities come together: the first one, "Lesbian", historically and socially marginalised, and the second one, one of the most revered, "mother". This research has studied the maternities of Lesbian women in Catalonia from an anthropological perspective. An ethnographic case study has been conducted based on the life stories of different lesboparental families, taking into account a range of variables such as the membership or not to an association for families, the age of women, the assisted reproductive technology used to access motherhood, etc. We have worked on the life stories of sixteen families. The participating women are aged between 30 and 60 years old. The general objective of the research is to analyse the cultural constructions and practices of families formed by Lesbian women in the context of the Catalan society. Based on the experiences of these women, we intend to show the social and cultural processes through which the participants have built their motherhood in present times. This research addresses the way these motherhoods pass through the bodies of women, multiple bodies: bodies of women, lesbians and mothers. It depicts the journey of the process of their motherhoods: from the moment they make the decision to become a mother, how they decide to achieve it (ART used), the waiting time until the confirmation of pregnancy, the moment of the baby’s arrival (childbirth and lactation) and the way their motherhood changes their personal and family lives ("the coming out"). It is about the experiences of Lesbian women who use ART (assisted reproductive technology) to become pregnant, we refer to the gestating mother and to the social mother. The gender perspective has permitted the exploration of the binary and heterosexist vision permeating biomedical protocols and care in these cases, and the way Lesbian women give meaning to their experiences of care. In current times, the study of lesboparental families is both a challenge and an opportunity. A challenge because there are not many studies on this subject, and an opportunity because legal recognition has allowed many families of Lesbian women to become visible, women that until recently were still in the "closet".

Abstract:
Le droit de la santé réglemente les actions de santé lato sensu. En encadrant juridiquement une pluralité d'actes médicaux, comme l'AMP, l'interruption de grossesse, l'examen des empreintes génétiques ou encore les dons d'éléments et produits du corps humain, il influence le droit extra-patrimonial de la famille. Cette influence est protéiforme et se manifeste à la fois sur la détermination des liens familiaux et sur les droits et devoirs en découlant. Le droit comparé franco-suisse, dans sa fonction de connaissance du droit, permet de révéler les manifestations de cette influence. Le droit de la santé français exerce fréquemment un rôle moteur, subversif des concepts civilistes traditionnels. Le droit de la santé et le droit de la famille sont le plus souvent pensés séparément, le premier tendant parfois à s'autonomiser. À l'inverse, le droit de la santé suisse s'inspire régulièrement des constructions civilistes préexistantes, même si la finalité sanitaire justifie parfois un renouvellement des concepts. Ainsi, les deux champs du droit sont le plus souvent pensés globalement, approche dont le droit français gagnerait à s'inspirer. L'influence du droit de la santé sur le droit extra-patrimonial de la famille doit être repensée en tenant compte des objectifs poursuivis par les différentes règles de droit. La spécificité des actes médicaux à finalité familiale justifie que le droit de la santé soit cantonné à un rôle technique, suiveur de l'évolution du droit de la famille. En revanche, lorsqu'il réglemente les actes médicaux susceptibles d'influencer les droits et devoirs familiaux, le droit de la santé peut exercer un rôle complémentaire à celui du droit de la famille
Health law regulates medical activity. By giving a legal framework to several medical acts, such as ART, abortion, DNA identification or donations of components and products of the human body, it influences extrapatrimonial family law. This influence is undeniably protean as it is exerted on both the definition and the legal regime of family ties. In its quest for improving knowledge of legal systems, French-Swiss comparative law can reveal and explain the manner in which this influence is expressed. In France, health law often plays a leading role, thus subverting traditional family law concepts and sometimes leading to inconsistencies. Health law and family law are usually viewed separately, with health law often taking an autonomous stance. In Switzerland, on the other hand, health law frequently draws on preexisting civil and family law concepts. Most of the time, these two fields of law are thought of together. This analysis incites us to rebuild French law in the light of Swiss law. The influence of health law on extrapatrimonial family law must be rethought, by taking into account the goal of each legal rule. The specificity of medical acts pursuing family interests justifies confining health law to a technical role, following the evolution of family law. Health law must be a tool for family law. However, health law can complement family law when it comes to the determination of family rights and duties. This complementarity is expressed either through the articulation of both branches of law when common goals are visible, or through the search for criteria capable of reconciling the conflicting goals pursued by these two subjects

Abstract:
This chapter provides a broad overview of federal civil rights laws that ensure equal opportunity and fair treatment to people with disabilities. These laws and regulations bring with them a wide range of rights and services, some of which translate to entitlements in the form of assistive technology services and devices. It is therefore important that those with disabilities, their family members, and individuals who support people with disabilities become familiar with these various laws and regulations. In addition to discussing technology and disability laws, regulations, and rights, Website URLs of the respective governing office, agency, or outside organization have been included, allowing this chapter to serve not only as a primer but also as a reference as well.

Abstract:
In light of increasing life expectancy and population aging, healthcare systems today face the challenge of addressing the care-related needs of an increasingly aging population. Aging compounded with physical and neurological deteriorations means greater caregiving demands for both the formal healthcare sector and informal care from family members and friends. Unpaid informal caregiving is cost effective for the healthcare system as a whole; however, providing care for a family member with dementia can negatively impact the health of the caregiver. The increasing development and deployment of assistive technology is predicted to alleviate caregiving burden and allow the older person with dementia to remain independent and continue to live at home for as long as possible. This chapter presents the landscape of information on informal caregiving for patients with dementia and its associated caregiving burden. It also discusses the evidence available on the potential of assistive technology for alleviating informal caregiving burden. The chapter concludes with some considerations about the governance of assistive technology. It argues that assistive technologies that are proven to be clinically effective should be made fairly and ubiquitously available to improve the quality of life of the person with dementia and his or her family caregiver. This is important to ensure the sustainability of the overall healthcare system.

Abstract:
The recovery period post acquired brain injury (ABI) results in individuals becoming vastly dependent on family support and caregivers. Theoretical data and findings suggest that there is a lack of awareness and family support structures surrounding those affected by ABI. The empirical data indicated the need for further research and development aimed at improving conditions for recovery for individuals who are recovering from acquired brain injury. This chapter is aimed at creating awareness of assistive technology that can be used in conjunction with existing family support structures for people who are affected by ABI. The findings of this study have the potential to significantly contribute to practices and policies in society through research by providing a local country-contextual theoretical understanding of what needs to be done for persons with ABI and how AT can be used as a recovery tool within family support structures during the recovery process.

Abstract:
This chapter aims to offer some general thoughts on the development and use of intelligent assistive technologies in dementia. Based on an analysis of ethical principles and concepts, guidelines, recommendations, and codes of conduct in the field broadly construed, the text argues for an approach that takes the user perspective, in particular the users’ abilities, wishes, and goals, more clearly into consideration in intelligent assistive technology development and use. Although the reflections may have implications for caregivers, family members, and others involved in the care of persons with dementia, they are not so much intended to guide individual, patient-directed decision making as to address future directions for technology development and use in a more general way.

Abstract:
This chapter follows efforts of an online community of practice whose mission is to make individual educational experiences for family caregivers widely available. The case study illustrates the collaborative learning and creative processes of the community of practice as it worked to construct and transform informal educational content into engaging, interactive, and immersive educational tools for its intended audience. As part of its efforts, the CoP created The LiveAbility House, a virtual demonstration home, constructed in Second Life®. This virtual home is designed to teach individuals about real life universal design principles and assistive technology devices that may increase their ability to remain living at home despite physical or cognitive challenges they may encounter due to aging, illness, or disability. In addition to the creation of a virtual learning experience, the chapter also addresses plans to then take that experience out of the virtual world and apply and demonstrate learning principles in a real world setting.

Abstract:
Transitioning to life after high school can be challenging for most young adults, even more so for individuals with a nonverbal learning disability (NLD). However, careful planning can lead to success. Friends, family members, employers, college instructors, therapists, and other service providers need information and methods to support individuals with NLD, particularly those with spina bifida (SB). A review of NLD characteristics, effects on student learning, non-awareness and misconceptions of NLD, and effective supports for individuals with NLD (e.g., accommodations, agendas and checklists, assistive technology) will be illustrated via the example of one young college student with NLD and SB. MAP (Making Action Plans) and PATH (Planning Alternative Tomorrows with Hope)—research-based strategies and tools for transition planning and progress monitoring of teens and young adults with NLD and SB—as well as methods to self-advocate to obtain assistance from others academically, physically, socially, and emotionally will be demonstrated.

Abstract:
Complex new product development requires numerous decisions by many individuals and groups, which are often geographically and temporally distributed. There is a need to share and coordinate distributed resources and synchronize decisions, and recent advances in information technology (IT) pose an untapped potential for assisting in the capture, storage, retrieval and facilitated use of product development information. We exploit IT to address this problem through the proposed approach to Product Family Planning. By sharing assets such as components, processes and knowledge across a family of products, companies can efficiently develop differentiated products and increase the flexibility and responsiveness of their product realization process. In this paper we describe our recent efforts in realizing an information management infrastructure for product family planning and platform customization. In particular, we focus on three current research thrusts to identify product platform leveraging strategies to support future product family planning: (1) an evolutionary approach to product platforming, (2) a bottom-up approach to product platforming, and (3) industry-based platform case studies. Future research directions are also outlined.

Abstract:
Communicating with friends, family, peers and colleagues has always underpinned work and social behaviour. However, the devices that act as conduits to this communication have changed over time, and differ across the globe. People in industralised corners of the world are more and more frequently using advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs) to assist both the senders and receivers to have more timely, synchronous and value-added communiques. Well, that is what the promotional material is telling us. The primary role of undergraduate education is to best prepare graduates for the workforce that they are being primed. To this end, educators need to be knowledgeable in what students already know, do, and their perceptions of what is required and is of value in assisting them to communicate with colleagues or peers. This paper presents a study that aimed to identify directions for undergraduate IT curriculum in developing the information and communication technology (ICT) readiness of beginning IT (in particular Information Systems) professionals to work in a collaborative team. Three hundred undergraduate Information Systems (IS) students were invited to participate in the study, one-hundred and sixty responded. The results indicate that there is a definitive relationship between frequency of use and the perceived value of an information and communication technology, and that the use of an ICT as a communication device in a social situation does not guarantee its use or even its perceived value as a communication device in a work situation: Visa versa is also true. Findings from the research could be used to influence IS curriculum developers in preparing undergraduate students’ readiness for communicating (and collaborating) in the digital workforce of today.
