Extractions: Beyond Autism Happy St. Patrick's Day! Beyond Autism is a site by a parent that has "been there, done that, and still doing it". This autism site contains over 2,300 links to other resources and is a comprehensive source of information for those of you just starting out - to help you move "beyond" the label of autism - somehow we all have to do that no matter how difficult it is... I have included many links on teaching methodologies, education and "special" education resources, IEP information, augmentive and communication assistance with assistive technology information, disability legal information, sensory dysfunction issues, specialized catalogs,behavior problems and much more! There is a trove of information here on PECS and communication. There are many wonderful and helpful resources available to assist parents and professionals working with children with Autism and many other developmental disabilities. I have tried to include and weed through as many resources as I can so that you will not have to go the search engine route on "autism" and sort through them all....I hope this site helps better prepare you for what lies ahead. Over the years I have learned that there is no one intervention that fits all.I believe that there are portions of many different methodologies that may be applicable to each individual child. There are many issues involved with these children that fall under the "autism spectrum" label - communication, social, behavioral, neurologic, gastrointestinal, immunologic, genetic, allergic, nutritional, metabolic etc....Many of them affect each other and yet have to be addressed individually as they arise.

Cambridge Center For Behavioral Studies (CCBS): Applied Behavior Analysis And Be
Rich set of resources for research, professional advancement, and applications to education, industry, and special populations. Sections on aging, autism, parenting, behavioral safety, organizational behavior, pets and animals, and verbal behavior.
http://www.behavior.org/

Extractions: Behavior analysis (sometimes called behavioral psychology) is the scientific study of behavior and its relationship to the environment surrounding the individual. Prior stimuli and a history of consequences play a huge part in increasing or decreasing the frequency and likelihood that behavior will occur. The science was originally established by B.F. Skinner and his colleagues, but now there are thousands of behavior analysts around the world, continuing to scientifically enhance our understanding of behavioral dynamics, or applying the science to create more effective solutions to real-world problems. Applied behavior analysis refers to practical solutions to everyday challenges where poor behavior is the problem. The Cambridge Center for Behavioral Studies (CCBS) is proud to present sections of its web site featuring behavioral solutions to education, parenting, autism, aging, safety, performance management in business, computer modeling of behavior, verbal behavior (language and thinking), and training of pets and animals, among others. Please follow these links to the individual sections of our site.

http://www.autism.org/rett.html

Extractions: Center for the Study of Autism, Salem, Oregon Rett Syndrome was first recognized by Andreas Rett in 1966 and is a neurological disorder affecting primarily females. Autopsies on the brains of these individuals indicate a pathology different than autism; however, children afflicted with Rett Syndrome often exhibit autistic-like behaviors, such as repetitive hand movements, prolonged toe walking, body rocking, and sleep problems. The prevalence of Rett Syndrome is similar to the prevalence of autism; that is, estimates are between 1 in 10,000 births and 1 in 15,000 births. Typical characteristics: In most cases, there is a regression in cognition, behavior, social, and motor skills throughout their lifetime.
