Communicative Profile in Autistic Spectrum With & Without Associated Disorders
The need for individual-based language intervention programs for children with autism spectrum disorders is reinforced in this session. Children with the disorder tend to present individualistic characteristics of communication profiles that are not necessarily influenced by the presence of genetic, neurological, or cognitive disorders.
The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is the national professional, scientific, and credentialing organization for more than 123,000 audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and speech, language, and hearing scientists in the U.S. and internationally.
