Introduction to Parts II and III
 Early Achievements Model
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Children with ASD need to build the
infrastructure to do what you just
did so effortlessly

What are your treatment priorities?
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Your objective
1. Improve child functioning and hence, improve
outcomes
2. Ensure a developmental milieu that will cultivate
change and sustain growth/maintenance of new skills

The 4 E’s: How they help
Engagement with people:

Event-based: Predict and contribute
Maintaining meaningful, reciprocal
engagement
How to engage with others
Imitation
Joint attention
Conversation
Understanding and remembering
sequences of actions and event
components
Forming representations and symbols
Flexibility and generativity
Reading comprehension
Embodiment of experience: Motor
planning and making sense
Ecological validity (relevant to child’s
life experiences): Generalization
Planning
Motivation
Initiation
Multi-modal mapping
Understanding others’ actions
Difficulty with implicit learning
Play
Using learned ‘forms’ (gestures, words)
meaningfully
Extracting relevant information

Families: Parent Mediated
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Myths
 What you want for the child is what the parent wants
 What you understand about the child’s level of
functioning is how the parent sees the child’s
developmental level (repetitive actions video)
 How you read the child’s intended messages is how the
parent reads them
 You utilize the tools of our trade and child will change
© Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Many factors contribute to change
 Child factors (temperament, cognition, social
cognition, preferences, motor, language, past
experiences, biology, regression or fluctuating
plateau/regression?)
 Parent factors (expectations for child, expectations for
self, how they were raised, time, stress, mental health,
resources, etc)
 Cultural factors (macro, micro)
 ____________________

To achieve developmental gains
 Alter early experiences through
 Strategically designed early intervention
 Therapist-mediated (+peers)
 Parent-mediated (+parent education)
 Intervention is nourishment to the brain (embodied
cognition)

Part II: Family-Centered Approach
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
When the expected doesn’t
happen in child’s development…
 Parents experience:
 Fear
 Lack of confidence
 Drawing at straws
 Strain in the family: disagreement about what to do
 Friends and family don’t understand
 Feelings of isolation
 Fragility in ‘connection’ with child

Change:
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Culture
 Each family is a culture
 Beliefs about the child
 Beliefs about autism (India)
 Spousal/partner/family roles
 Expectations for outcomes, child behavior, self,
school…
 Discipline
 Etc.

Basics for getting started
 In delivery of parent-mediated intervention
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Helping parents feel acknowledged
and understood
 Be a good ‘teacher’ AND listener.
 Be ready to lay your paradigms aside.
 Cross cultural competency. What is the currency (eg do chores vs play) to get
buy-in? (chores vs play; role of other family members)
 Can’t arrive in the family’s home with your goals. Process to jointly establish
goals for child.
 Where do they see their child and what are their expectations? Their
expectations may exceed what would be expected for TD kids.
 Observe the child AND parent (style, priorities, challenges, signatures).
 Permission to take time for themselves.
 Change is executed within the system. Not trying to change the system.
 Shape what needs shaping.
 Co-problem solving (enlist parent’s input).
 Want to feel validated. Acknowledge what they are doing right.

Responsivity literature
 In DD, TD, ASD, parents can learn to engage in responsive
interactions with their children (e.g., BackersmansKranenburg, van Ijzendoorn, & Juffer, 2003; McCollum &
Hemmeter, 1997; Trivette, 2003)
 Responsivity:





Parents respond to children’s verbal and nonverbal acts
Recode these communicative acts
Take a turn and wait
Follow the child’s lead
Imitate the child
 Need relationship base, but also need to take steps to
directly teach specific gestures, vocalizations, coordinated
gaze, and communication (Fey et al., JSLHR, 2006)
Rebecca Landa, Ph.D., CCC-SLP
Adult learning
 What you teach parents must be directly relevant to their lives
 Need demonstrations and models of the skills being taught

(Winton & McCollum, 1997)
Need to teach to generalize
As new knowledge is applied at home, parents will encounter
challenges for which they must generate creative solutions
Problem solving results in consolidation of recently gained
knowledge (Kolb, 1984)
Over time, parents begin to be able to problem solve in more and
more complex situations
Skills become ‘automatized’ and flexible, with parents being able
to utilize their knowledge in more and more challenging
contexts to arrive at creative and effective solutions (Feldon,
2007)

Steps:
1. Know the child
a. developmental levels (established, emerging,
undeveloped abilities/skills/behaviors)
b. preferences (activities, reinforcers)
c. temperament and ‘triggers’
2. Know the parents’ perspectives and priorities, concerns,
perceived barriers
3. Define child goals & parental goals/roles
4. Define activities & materials
5. Define schedule
6. Define data keeping system
7. Select a curriculum

2. Build relationship with parents
 Affirming and validating the parents
 Decoding the child’s behavior
 Helps them regulate child’s behavior
 Helps them scaffold for increased child learning
 Understanding development
 Simplifying
 Relaxing and having fun during interaction
 Goals
 Realizing that their behavior affects child
 Developing insights into what they do, say, expect
 Parents have choices, these impact the child
 Realizing that they CAN optimize learning environment
 Toy and book selection
 Home arrangement
 Home schedule
 Parents reach consensus

 What can I do with this object? How can I make it go?





How can I make it work?
Does it still exist when I can’t see it?
What is the same/different about these things?
(categories)
What other things can I play with when I play with this
toy? (ball, bucket; cup, spoon)
What causes what to happen?
What happens first, second, ….?

The Ingredients

Your checklist
Curriculum
 Does my intervention target goals that are
Easy (at the child’s level- maintenance and generalization)
 Harder but within reach
 Relevant to the child’s life
 Building the skills needed in order to learn the next set of
skills the child needs to develop


Your checklist
 Instructional strategies
 Face to face
 Clear and appropriate cues


Clear enough that s/he knows what I want him/her to do?
Am I cueing something that is developmentally appropriate (refer to curriculum)?
 Imitate and expand
 Motivating activities
 Am I incorporating child’s interests?
 Sufficient predictability? (Routines?)
 Prompting
 Am I scaffolding and prompting, as needed, to promote success?
 Strategic use of modeling
 Reinforcing
 Are the reinforcers relevant to the behavior?
 Did I deliver the reinforcement quickly enough for the child to know s/he was
being reinforced?

Putting it into action: 4 E’s
Embodiment: Opportunities for child to experience
the ‘skill’ with his/her own body?
Ecologically valid: Does the activity relate to anything
the child will experience in real life?
Event-based: Am I scaffolding a set of events that
enable the child to learn how things happen in his/her
life?
Engagement: Are there opportunities for using the
skill in interaction with adults and peers?

mediated)
Parent-child interactions can be shaped – changing
perspectives and behaviors and dynamics
Must be strategic in use of strategies and principles to
effect change
Need to play for sustainability of change
Strategies will change with child change
More to be done… support systems, peers, community
engagement…
