  • The title of the RDI-related research that is being presented at IMFAR (San Diego, not California) is 'Emotional regulation in autism: A relational, therapeutic perspective'.

    This is taken from the abstract:

     

    'In autism, difficulties with interpersonal engagement may disrupt the caregiver-child emotion regulation system. Relationship Development Intervention attempts to foster dyadic regulation. The present study reports objectively evaluated improvements in parent-child interaction within families receiving RDI, and now comparison with control groups is indicated. The relation between changes in dyadic interaction and changes in children's social-communication will be reported. Treatment approaches which focus on interaction between children with autism and their caregivers have the potential to affect the children's emotion regulation abilities which, in turn, are likely to influence other areas of emotional, cognitive, and social development.'

     

    An abstract of the full presentation will likely be on the IMFAR web site in due course.

     

    Hope that's helpful
