In this study, we want to identify the spatial reasoning of autistic students based on the categories of spatial reasoning (spatial visualization, mental rotation, and spatial orientation) and level of reasoning (abstract and concrete). A total of 46 autistic students and 46 non-autistic students participated as subjects. All subjects were given 6 types of spatial reasoning tests which included all three categories and levels of spatial reasoning. The results that autistic students have an advantage in the abstract spatial visualization category while non-autistic students have an advantage in the concrete spatial visualization category. These results indicate specifically that abstract spatial visualization is the strongest spatial reasoning possessed by autistic students. Thus, this study provides a new picture of students' spatial reasoning ability in terms of the reasoning category and the level of reasoning.","PeriodicalId":46284,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Special Education","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136311477","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}

In Brazil, studies of this nature are scarce but essential for identifying successful early intervention practices for a population that has significantly grown in the last three decades. The aim of this investigation was to evaluate the effects of Reading to Engage Children with Autism in Language and Learning (RECALL), an intervention protocol that employs dialogic reading principles on the language and literacy skills of a 3-year-old child with ASD and a 4-year-old typically developing peer. Using a single-subject A-B research design, the effects of RECALL, employed by mothers, on their children's responses were evaluated. The results revealed that: (a) average effect size for strategy use following caregiver training was large for the mother of the child with ASD (Tau-U = 0,7) and moderate for the mother of the typically developing child (Tau-U = 0,5) ; (b) both children became more responsive, significantly increasing the frequency of communication interactions following caregiver intervention (Tau-U = 1); (d) the child with typical development showed an increase in the frequency of correct and spontaneous responses, and (c) the intervention was positively evaluated by the caregivers. Adaptations of the protocol, as well as its limitations, are discussed.","PeriodicalId":46284,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Special Education","volume":"136 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135698222","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}

One of the most challenging aspects of this phenomenon is how a disability can mask or hide gifted/talented characteristics; how gifted/talented characteristics might mask a disability; or how both might mask each other. Given the paradoxical nature of twice-exceptionality, it is understandable how twice-exceptional students can easily be overlooked in the demanding day-to-day reality of school, even if teachers have knowledge of twice-exceptionality. The purpose of this study was to examine if teachers, parents, and other professionals could identify twice-exceptionality given specific clues. For this pilot study, the author surveyed professionals in the field of gifted/talented to measure their ability to recognize twice-exceptional characteristics after reading fictional scenarios that represented possible real-life situations. All participants were members of the Colorado Association of Gifted and Talented (CAGT) in Colorado USA. A total of 107 respondents responded to an electronic survey with the highest response rate for any one question of 78. The results indicated that professionals failed to recognize twice-exceptionality because of how well the characteristics were masked. The findings indicated that more needs to be done to inform educators of the phenomenon of twice-exceptionality.","PeriodicalId":46284,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Special Education","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70995444","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}
