Autism, 5.03 (V) Who is Developing Evidence-based Practices?

5.03 (V) Who is Developing Evidence-based Practices?

In this lesson we learn about the work of two key national projects. Who have undertaken the task of identifying, based on the research literature, the evidence based practices for autism spectrum disorders. You will learn about the National Professional Development Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders and the National Autism Center's National Standards Project. You will also learn about 27 specific evidence based practices as identified by the National Professional Development Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders. So what are the evidence-based practices for Autism spectrum disorders? There is no one, single nationally adopted definition or set of evidence-based practices for Autism spectrum disorders. However, two keys projects have identified evidence-based practice, based on a meta analysis of the research literature. These projects are the National Professional Development Center for Autism Spectrum Disorders at the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Center at the University of North Carolina Chapel Hill and the National Autism Centers National Standards Project. Beginning in 2008, the National Professional Development Center, which received funding from the Office of Special Education Programs. Conducted an extensive review of the autism intervention literature published between 1997 and 2007. Based on this literature review they identified 24 practices that met the criteria for evidence based practices for children and youth with Autism spectrum disorders. In 2014 the National Professional Development Center released finding of another extensive review of studies. From the year 1990 through 201 for ages birth through 22. Based on this review they identified 27 practices that met the criteria for evidence-based practices for children and youth with autism. The findings from this extensive review can be found on the National Professional Development Center website. Their report titled Evidence Based Practices for Children Youth and Young Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder, March 2014. Contains information on how these evidence based practices were reviewed and how they determined to be effective for the various age groups across the different domains. The National Professional Development Center definition of an evidence-based practice is a focused intervention practice that has substantial evidence for effectiveness in promoting positive outcomes for learners with ASD. To be considered in evidence-based practice in individuals with autism, efficacy must have been established through peer reviewed research in scientific journals using at least two high quality experimental or quasi experimental group designs. And articles must have been published by a t least two different researchers, or research groups. Or, there must have been at least five high quality single case design articles published by at least three different researchers, or research groups. Having a total of at least 20 participants across the studies. Or a combination of at least one high quality experimental or quasi experimental group design. And at least three high quality single subject design studies conducted. And published by at least two different research groups. This slide summarizes those findings. On the left side you see a brief description of each of the 27 evidence-based practices. And across the top it's broken into different domains, such as social, communication, behavior, joint attention, play and so forth. In addition you see the age range in which the practice was identified to be effective. For example in green, anything highlighted in green is shown to be effective for individuals between birth and five years of age. Anything highlighted in yellow was shown to be effective for individuals between the ages of six and 14. And anything highlighted in blue will shown to be effective for individuals ranging from around 15 through H22 or adult transition. The evidence based practices identified by the National Professional Development Center include Antecedent-based intervention, cognitive behavioral intervention, differential reinforcement, discrete trial teaching, exercise. Extinction procedures, functional behavior assessment, functional communication training, modeling. Naturalistic interventions, parent-implemented interventions, peer-mediated interventions and instruction. Picture exchange communication system, pivotal response training, prompting, reinforcement, response interruption and redirection. Scripting, self-management, social narratives, social skills training, structured playgroups, task analysis, technology-aided instruction & interventions, time delay, video modeling, and visual supports. Additional descriptions and information about each of these practices can be found in the 2014 National Professional Development Center report.
