Joshua R. Smith; Corey E. Hopkins; Jiangmei Xiong; James Luccarelli; Elizabeth Shultz; Simon Vandekar – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID) are heterogenous and prevalent conditions which may occur in isolation or as a co-morbidity. Psychiatric co-morbidity is common with limited treatment options. Preliminary research into electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for these conditions has been encouraging. Thus, further research…

Wang, Jinjing – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Infants who receive better counting input at home tend to become toddlers with better number knowledge in preschool. However, for many children, in-person counting experience is not always available, despite educational media becoming increasingly prevalent. Might virtual counting experience benefit the young mind? Using a novel online looking…

Camprodon; Wolnei Caumo; Claiton Henrique Dotto Bau; Eugenio Horacio Grevet; Luis Augusto Rohde; Douglas Teixeira Leffa – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2025
Objective: Few trials in ADHD incorporate participant-centered outcomes that evaluate the impact of interventions on meaningful life activities. Additionally, in psychiatry, the translation of changes in symptom rating scales into meaningful impacts on participants' lives has been questioned. The Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) for…

Patricia A. Goodhines; Adrian M. Svingos; Samantha Gerish; Aesoon Park; Les A. Gellis – Journal of American College Health, 2024
Objective: Performance of Cognitive Refocusing Treatment for Insomnia (CRT-I) relative to stimulus control treatment (SCT) remains unknown among college students. This pilot trial compared single-session, electronic-based, peer-led CRT-I to SCT, and as well as awareness-based (AC) and no-treatment (NTC) controls. Participants: College students (N…

de Paz, Carlos; Travieso, David – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2023
Sensory substitution devices (SSDs) facilitate the detection of environmental information through enhancement of touch and/or hearing capabilities. Research has demonstrated that several tasks can be successfully completed using acoustic, vibrotactile, and multimodal devices. The suitability of a substituting modality is also mediated by the type…

Tae Lee Lee; Hanall Lee; Nyeonju Kang – npj Science of Learning, 2023
Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation used for improving cognitive functions via delivering weak electrical stimulation with a certain frequency. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the effects of tACS protocols on cognitive functions in healthy young adults. We identified 56…

Schwen Blackett, Deena; Harnish, Stacy M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Emotional stimuli have been shown to influence language processing (both language comprehension and production) in people with aphasia (PWA); however, this finding is not universally reported. Effects of emotional stimuli on language performance in PWA could have clinical and theoretical implications, yet the sparsity of studies and…

Man-Chi Lai; Yu-Feng Lin; Sheng-Wei Wang; Ching-Hsiang Shih – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2024
This study investigated the effectiveness of applying a smartphone to reduce the hyperactive/impulsive behaviors of 3 students with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in class. A smartphone that can simultaneously provide vibration and visual text prompts was adopted in this study to remind the participants when they exhibited…

Charest, Jonathan; Marois, Alexandre; Bastien, Celyne H. – Journal of American College Health, 2021
Introduction: Previous studies have shown that student-athletes suffer from sleep difficulties. This study explored the impact of tDCS on sleep parameters among student-athletes. Method: Thirty student-athletes (15 females, 15 males, age 21.1 ± 2.1 years) were recruited. All participants underwent a series of questions to rule out depressive and…

Foster, Hannah G.; Elliott, Tyler-Curtis C.; Ayres, Kevin M. – Research and Practice for Persons with Severe Disabilities, 2023
Dressing is an important skill for students with developmental disabilities, so they rely less on caregivers and build independence. Research evaluating dressing skills instruction commonly uses some type of graduated guidance to teach the skill. In this study, three students receiving special education services under autism eligibility had…

This triple-arm, double-blind, randomized clinical trial investigated the effect of multisession prefrontal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on social functioning in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A total of 105 individuals (age 14-21 years) diagnosed with ASD were randomized into the active-tDCS, sham-tDCS, and…

Yuile, Lauren Emily; Smidt, Andy; Quinlan, Sinead – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2021
Background: People with severe-to-profound intellectual disabilities often lack meaningful interactions with others. Communication partners need to be skilled in identifying and responding to often-subtle behaviours. One method of facilitating interaction is the use of sensory-based stimuli. Method: This study measured the impact of sensory-based…

Lin-Stephens, Serene; Manuguerra, Maurizio; Tsai, Pei-Jung; Athanasou, James A. – Education & Training, 2022
Purpose: Stories of employability are told in employment and educational settings, notably the selection interviews. A popular training approach guiding higher education students to construct employability stories has been the past-behaviour storytelling method. However, insufficient research exists regarding the method's effectiveness and…

Karbowski, Caroline Frances – Journal of Science Education for Students with Disabilities, 2020
Objects such as snowflakes, castles, and butterflies have become more than just words when explored as a 3D print. The founder's passion for braille led to the creation of the program See3D, which organizes the printing and distribution of 3D printed models for people who are blind. 3D prints such as DNA, cells, animals, constellations,…
