đ§ AUTISM THERAPY: ADAPTIVE INTERVENTIONS FOR PRESCHOOLERS!
Big news! Adaptive interventions are showing promise for minimally verbal autistic preschoolers.
UCLA trials are testing PRISM, a 20-week sequence of therapies like DTT, JASPER, and CET. The goal? To boost language skills and reduce the risk of remaining minimally verbal by age 6.
đĄ Why is this exciting? Because every child is different! PRISM adapts to each child's needs, offering personalized support.
â
DTT (Discrete Trial Training): Focuses on breaking down skills into smaller steps.
â
JASPER (Joint Attention, Symbolic Play, Engagement, and Regulation): Uses play to encourage communication and social interaction.
â
CET (Communication Enhancement Therapy): Works directly on improving communication abilities.
This multi-faceted approach could be a game-changer!
