In these environments, the problems in behavioral instincts might be more obvious compared to a doctor's home or his chamber. It is required on the part of the doctors to devote more time to test patients those who are less in age whom they expect to be having autism. A systematic neurologic, listening and testing the manner of his speaking must be done prior to making the detection; More research should be carried out to develop testing instruments for infants and to find out the functioning of brain activity, genetics and family settings in the development of autism. (Preboth, 2000)
But while the children having autism mature crossing the threshold of their classroom and plunge into adult life of holding jobs and self-sufficient livelihood, the fundamental organized specialized education methods which have been exhibited to be efficient in the earlier years are relevant as well. The Childhood Autism Rating Scale -CARS is a popularly employed tool for detecting autism in youths. In appreciating the truth that the uniqueness has a propensity to change as the children gains age, the constancy of CARS marks with age has been confirmed. Mesibov, Schopler, Schaffer and Michael did comparison of CARS score of 59 subjects who were initially detected before attaining the age of 10 and those who were again tested after the age of 13. The mean CARS total marks became less by 2.2 as the subjects advanced in age. (Van Bourgondien; Schopler, 1996)
Studies have established that children having autism can profit from the employment of behavioral methods to impart definite language proficiencies. Naturalistic teaching techniques have even been revealed to be fruitful in teaching latest expertise to children having autism. Naturalistic policies start with the objective of the student to interact and the teacher's capability to methodically supply patterns of suitable communications structure and significant social effects for communication endeavors. It is apparent that in order that language interference to be successful who have autism, it is vital that the interference starts in the initial stages; the interference aims the social use of language, not merely the substance of language; and the strength and period of the interference are enough to sustain the attainment and widespread use of latest expertise.
Even though there are an increasing number of interference researches investigating the impact on attainment of language for children having autism, no studies till today have been known to particularly discover if these modifications in the language of the children simplify to the interactions with their parents. Parents of children having autism, often state regarding their wishes to communicate with their children in manners that are operative for parent as well as child. Indeed, disturbed parent-child communicative interactions often happen in families of children having autism and difficulty in communication can aggravate confrontation activities demonstrated by a number of children with autism. Commonality of language proficiencies of children to vital people in their lives cannot be understood to occur as an outcome of language interference as children with autism has specific problems in generalizing social communications proficiencies...
Assuming the importance of communication within the perspective of the family, it is particularly vital that any language interference with children having autism even investigate the impact of that interference with their families. (Hancock; Kaiser, 2002)
Extensive role has been played in employing practical behavior analysis as the foundation for devising healing methods which are fruitful in dealing with a wide range of conduct linked wit autism. The most methodically efficient healing procedure appears to be established upon a behavioral model that is rigorously performed and in the initial stages in the life of the child. Apart from these general researches, healing for autism is dependent on the personal and family variables. Autism is that type of intriguing disorder and a lot of issues regarding the condition are yet to be unraveled. Hence no present healing procedure is existent which fully deals with the requirement of impairment. Maybe a balancing of diverse policies is necessary to comply the intricate demands and variety of features linked with autism. As Lovas states, a person might have to interfere on every behaviors, in all settings, and with the assistance of every important individual. Truly, an overabundance of customized healing might have to be begun in the initial stages in life and persist intensively for an extended time frame. (Schoen, 2003)
