Educational Approaches to High-Functioning Autism and Asperger Syndrome

  • Chapter
Asperger Syndrome or High-Functioning Autism?

Part of the book series: Current Issues in Autism ((CIAM))

Abstract

Research studies on the effectiveness of treatment programs for children with autism have emphasized the link between structured educational intervention and positive child outcomes (Rutter & Bartak, 1973; Rutter, Greenfeld, & Lockyer, 1967; Schopler, Brehm, Kinsbourne, & Reichler, 1971; Schopler, Mesibov, DeVellis, & Short, 1981). Similarly, more recent reviews indicate that optimal treatment programs for children with autism are intensive, structured, educationally-based, and focused on the child’s acquisition of basic skills across a broad range of developmental areas (Olley, Robbins, & Morelli-Robbins, 1993; Rogers, 1996; Volkmar & Cohen, 1994). In contrast to the available publications describing highly structured educational programs for more impaired children with autism (see, e.g., Harris & Handleman, 1994; Lovaas, 1981; Schopler, Reichler, & Lansing, 1980), and despite the significant growth of relevant clinical and research literature over the past decade (summarized in this volume; Frith, 1991; Schopler & Mesibov, 1992), professionals have devoted less attention to isolating and empirically evaluating optimal educational interventions for children with high-functioning autism (HFA) or Asperger syndrome (AS).
