Answers

A.  High school students with Autism Spectrum Disorder may be aware that they do not fit in and try to mask their deficits.
B.  Social stories use a brief narrative that describes a situation, relevant social cues, and responses. Comic strip conversations promote social understanding by incorporating simple figures and other symbols in a comic strip format. An educator can draw or assist a student who illustrates a social situation in order to facilitate understanding.
C. For the child over-responsive to touch sensations, unexpected bumping by other students within cooperative learning activities, in lines, or during passing periods creates anxiety and irritation that can lead to a meltdown. The effective modulation of sensations that is required by increased sensory demands is difficult for the individual with ASD in school, where sensation is not as familiar or readily changeable.
D. For children who have ASD, the sensory input structures are usually intact; the difficulty with sensory processing occurs as the child tries to use that sensory input (i.e., process it) to respond to task and environmental demands.
E.  Teaching them to offer the objects during a social script resulted in increased social initiations and interaction that generalized across persons and time but not across settings.
F.  (1) understanding of concepts or language regardingfriendships, (2) description of what is not a friend, (3) description of what is a friend, (4) description of an acquaintance, and (5) using masquerading to cope with social deficits.
G.  PECS  is a structured behavioral intervention program designed to teach the use of visual-graphic symbols for communication.
H.  Thinking about Ben's needs for additional input, the family recorded the story on videotape using animated voices. They added sounds effect, such as his dog barking, to affirm a point, or a favorite song in the background to emphasize responses. Because it increased the visual and auditory input, the story matched Ben's high thresholds and he was more successful at using his social story to guide him.
I.  a specific application of video modeling that allows the child with Autism Spectrum Disorder to imitate targeted behaviors by observing herself or himself successfully performing a behavior.
J.  Intervention techniques included (a) arranging the situation or contingencies to promote optimal peer effort, (b) promoting peer effort by teaching peers skills for initiating with and reinforcing children with autism, and (c) changing peer expectancies by teaching social skills to the children with autism
K. explicit verbal instructions on how to interpret other people’s social behavior should be taught and exercised in a rote fashion; individual with ASD should be taught to monitor his/her own speech style; effort to develop individual’s skills with peers in terms of managing social situation; help to recognize and use range of different means to interact, mediate, negotiate, persuade, discuss, and disagree through verbal means
