Making Sense of Interventions for Children with Developmental Disorders

A Guide for Parents and Professionals

About this book

In this book, aimed at both parents and professionals, the authors discuss the non-evidence-based interventions that proliferate in the fields of children's speech, language, literacy, fluency, voice, communication, attention, cognition, working memory, behaviour and social connectedness. They explore the science – or lack thereof – behind the interventions and suggest evidence-based alternatives that enjoy stronger scientific support.
