Children who have autism require comprehensive educational and treatment services. There are a myriad of approaches currently recommended to practitioners and parents, but little is known about their efficacy. This title brings together multiple and contemporary perspectives on intervention effectiveness for autism education and behaviour support. With contributors from a variety of disciplines and orientations, 'Effective Practices for Children with Autism' presents a critical appraisal of current practice standards, emphasising empirically supported procedures and research-to-practice applications.
