Do you know someone suffering from a developmental disorder characterized by difficulties with social interaction and communication and by restricted and repetitive behavior? The autism journal can help with early speech therapy or behavioral interventions that can help children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) gain self-care, social, and communication skills. There is space to draw a picture on every page and write a short story beneath the picture. Using the autism journal can help with other educational interventions often used which include applied behavior analysis (ABA), developmental models, structured teaching, speech and language therapy, social skills therapy, and occupational therapy. Early and intensive ABA therapy has demonstrated effectiveness in enhancing global functioning in preschool children and the parent training model, which teaches parents how to implement various applied behavior analysis (ABA) and developmental social pragmatic models (DSP) techniques and allows for parents to disseminate interventions themselves.
