The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a radical lifestyle change, which may unintendedly change physical activity levels. We aimed to perform a systematic review to investigate the physical activity changes in people with neurological diseases, and to examine the relationship between physical activity and disease symptoms, and psychosocial factors. The review was performed in accordance with the Prefer...... hiện toàn bộ
A Pragmatic Evaluation of Three Models of Disability in Special EducationSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 343-359 - 2001

This paper explains and utilizes the philosophy of pragmatism in the evaluation of three models of disability used in disability research and services. The three models are (1) the functional limitations model, (2) the minority group model, and (3) the social construction model. Pragmatism emphasizes the moral and political utility of ideas, the ways that a person, group, or culture can use a conc...... hiện toàn bộ

Many children diagnosed with CHARGE syndrome demonstrate behavioral difficulties in addition to visual, hearing and other systemic impairments. Previous research has reported that children with CHARGE have increased rates of self-injury and aggression, as well as increased frequency of obsessive compulsive and autism spectrum disorders. This study asked parents to report not only the diagnoses giv...... hiện toàn bộ

The aim was to observe the behaviour of a sample of females with RTT and explore how it was organized in relation to environmental events. Ten participants, all with a less severe form of classic (n = 9) or atypical (n = 1) Rett syndrome (RTT), were filmed at home and at school or day centre. Analysis used real-time data capture software. Observational categories distinguished engagement in social...... hiện toàn bộ
Epidemiology of Physically Disabled OffendersSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 20 - Trang 399-413 - 2008
Nicole S. Kitei, Bruce D. Sales
While most of the literature on the experiences of physically disabled offenders in prison is legal or anecdotal, there is next to no epidemiological exploration of this special population in our state and federal correctional facilities. This is particularly troubling because it is estimated that there are over 220,000 inmates who have some degree of physical impairment. The purpose of this artic...... hiện toàn bộ
Less Restrictive Behavioral Interventions for Sleep Problems in Children with Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Single Case Feasibility StudySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 35 - Trang 647-682 - 2022
Emma C. Woodford, Laurie McLay, Neville M. Blampied, Karyn G. France, Rosina Gibbs, Charis Whitaker, Emma McCaughan
Sleep problems are prevalent among autistic children and children with Rare Genetic Neurodevelopmental Disorders (RGND). Behavioral interventions are commonly used to treat sleep problems, with most involving extinction. While effective, the occurrence of a response burst (i.e., temporary worsening of the behavior) can result in a temporary increase in parent and child distress, and negatively aff...... hiện toàn bộ
Staff Training in Intellectual and Developmental Disability Settings: a Scoping ReviewSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 32 - Trang 187-212 - 2019
Laura Gormley, Olive Healy, Amanda Doherty, Darragh O’Regan, Ian Grey
Frontline staff are a valuable asset within an intellectual and developmental disability service. Their work dictates the overall standard of care delivered by the organization. However, there is evidence that the research relating to effective practice is having little impact on the competencies displayed by staff in the real-world setting. Therefore, a scoping review of published literature was ...... hiện toàn bộ
Parental Report of Physical Activity and Sleep in Individuals with Down SyndromeSpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 35 - Trang 375-386 - 2022
Chih-Chia JJ Chen, Shannon D. R. Ringenbach
The high prevalence of sleep-related disorders is well documented in individuals with Down syndrome (DS). Given the association between physical activity (PA) and sleep in the typical populations, this study was the pilot study to examine this association through the parental report in this population. The total of forty-three individuals with DS (aged 14–55) participated in the present study. Par...... hiện toàn bộ
Paradoxical response to sedative/hypnotics in patients with Self-injurious behavior and stereotypySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 4 - Trang 307-316 - 1992
Curt A. Sandman, Jennifer L. Barron
Paradoxical response to sedative medication has been reported previously among patients with Self-injurious (SIB) and Stereotypic (ST) Behavior (Barron and Sandman, 1983, 1985). The prevalence of this marker was examined in 648 consecutive developmentally delayed patients tested in the EEG laboratory. Several analyses compared response to sedative/hypnotics, assessment of the EEG, and behavioral p...... hiện toàn bộ
