Culture-Based Intervention Strategies for Bedouin Parents of Children with ASD--Identification and Conceptualization
Manor-Binyamini, Iris
International Journal of Special Education, v33 n2 p448-464 2018
Professisonal community workers' interevention strategies are effective insofar as they are relevant to the cultural context in which they are delivered. This article presents a methodological process of identifying and conceptualizing culture-based intervention strategies of Bedouin professionals who work with Bedouin parents of children with ASD. Twenty three Bedouin professionals who work in a special education school for children with ASD participated in semi-structured ethnographic interviews. A thematic analysis was conducted, and 11 culturally based intervention strategies were identified and conceptualized. The manuscript presents these strategies in the results section with reference to three items of information: a) title, b) goals, and c) underlying assumptions. This research is, for the first time, focused on Bedouin culturally influenced intervention strategies, but its insights and the research methods that it offers allow for the identification of culturally based intervention methods and may be relevant for other traditional and/or indigenous communities that have children with ASD.
