Westby, Elizabeth Biersgreen","doi":"10.1177/10483950221136353c","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/10483950221136353c","url":null,"abstract":"risk (i.e., low, medium, high) and stressor domain (i.e., resettlement, acculturation, isolation, trauma). Interactive components accompany didactic content to support learning and knowledge transfer in assessment and treatment planning that is relevant for all providers supporting mental health, well-being, and education. The RICST includes (a) an overview of the Four Core Stressors framework; (b) stressor-specific educational content and sample guiding questions; (c) scaffolding to assess refugee/immigrant youth on a spectrum of low–moderate–high risk for each stressor; (d) specific intervention suggestions and strategies for the provided risk assessment (e.g., interventions for youth rated moderate-risk for traumatic stress); and (e) user feedback and usability questions at the end. Table 1 shows the four core stressors framework with stressorspecific educational content and sample guiding questions to explore each stressor. Following educational content and guiding questions related to each stressor, service providers are given a risk assessment table that provides specific examples for how youth who are low, moderate, and high risk within a given stressor may present. Anchors for each level of risk relate to whether a given stressor interferes with youth functioning at school, at home, and in social situations and/or how a stressor detracts from the safety of the youth’s social environment. A low-risk rating indicates a high level of functioning and/or a safe social environment, medium risk indicates diminished functioning and/or a distressed social environment, and high risk indicates severe impairment in functioning and/or a threatening social environment. Service providers are then prompted to select the level of risk for that particular stressor: low, moderate, or high risk. Use of the RICST can facilitate SLPs’ ability to understand a child’s demonstrated function and make decisions regarding the types of services needed. After selecting a risk rating, service providers are presented with intervention strategies specific to the stressor and the risk rating. Intervention strategies commonly encourage collaboration with other services, schools, community members, and/or cultural brokers. The results of the RICST can be printed to share with team members. No assessment of any child should be done in isolation, but this is especially true for immigrant/refugee children. The SLPs need to see the “big picture” of the child’s life.","PeriodicalId":39491,"journal":{"name":"Word of Mouth","volume":"34 1","pages":"11 - 15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42947467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Westby","doi":"10.1177/10483950221136353","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/10483950221136353","url":null,"abstract":"Children’s skills in telling narratives are positively related to language (e.g., Cooper et al., 1992; Mallan, 1991), to reading and writing skills (e.g., Dickinson & Tabors, 2002; Reese et al., 2010), and to children’s overall school performance (Snow et al., 1998). Moreover, quality of narratives told at 5 years of age (Griffin et al., 2004), or retold at 6 years of age (Reese et al., 2010), has been shown to contribute to reading fluency and comprehension at 8 years of age. Although children are capable of explaining events and behavior in their everyday interactions (Hickling & Wellman, 2001; Veneziano, 2001) and may succeed in first order false belief tasks at 4 to 5 years (Wellman et al., 2001), explicit reference to mental or epistemic states in self-constructed narratives is rarely observed before 6 to 7 years (Peterson & Slaughter, 2006). Until 6 to 7 years of age, children provide few explanations and evaluations of events, and it is not until 8 to 9 years that the majority of children express these elements (e.g., Berman, 2004, 2009; Berman & Slobin, 1994). From the age of 8 to 9 years, children begin to spontaneously refer to the characters’ internal states to explain their behaviors and the story events (Bamberg, 1994), and it is even later that they express false beliefs that require the characters’ beliefs to be clearly differentiated from the state of the world or to talk about the different points of view of the characters about the same event (KielarTurska, 1999; Küntay & Nakamura, 2004; Veneziano & Hudelot, 2009). Given the centrality of narrative skills in children’s development, many studies have focused on promoting children’s narrative skills using different methodologies, settings, and durations of the intervention. In this study, the authors used an intervention they titled short conversational intervention (SCI). The SCI was chosen because, besides being short and simple to administer, it has three features likely to promote the inferential content of children’s narratives. First, the SCI focuses children’s attention on the causal structure of the story, stimulating them to go beyond the perceptual details present in the pictures.
