Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue of JCM on personalized interventions for children and adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder and related disorders.
Translating findings from developmental and behavioral neuroscience can lead to the creation of more effective intervention approaches and strategies. Multi-level intervention approaches can best support developmental trajectories. Moreover, involving parents, teachers, peers, and community members can provide diverse social environmental contexts in which to practice and welcome interventions, increase opportunities to integrate peer contexts, and support the transition to independence. In addition, calibrating interventions according to children’s age, neuropsychological profile, and personal needs appears to be a crucial process that affects intrinsic motivation and improved benefits in daily life.
This Special Issue aims to present recent contributions on therapeutic interventions that tailor the process to the patient’s unique needs, with the goal of bringing scientific research closer to children’s daily lives to best support them at each stage of growth.
We welcome orginal research and reviews that cover, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- Intervention strategies;
- Therapeutic advance;
- Studies on differentiated treatment paths;
- New technology;
- Individual differences and heterogeneity;
- Gender differences and potential implications;
- Factors Influencing intervention’s efficacy.
