Executive skills, or executive functioning is at the heart of everything we do and plays a significant role on an individual’s ability to be successful in achieving goals- no matter how big or small.  Planning, prioritization, working memory, self-regulation, response inhibition, sustained attention, task initiation, and organization are all executive functions that, when impaired, can impact one’s ability to complete the simplest of tasks.  For children on the autism spectrum this impairment can be significant.  This presentation will outline what executive functioning is, how it develops in children, and how it can look different for children with ASD.  It will identify the current research surrounding teaching executive functioning skills, interpret that research to practice, and present some case-study data on how we teach executive functioning skills in our practice.

Hey Everyone, just a heads up…registration is filling up quickly! Please register now, seats are limited!

On May 10th, 6pm to 8pm at Capilano University, Katie Allen M.S., BCBA will be presenting on the Functional Analysis of Problem Behaviour.
This event is open for all interested.

Individuals with ASD and other special needs may often display a variety problem behaviours; this may include aggression, property destruction, self-injury and tantrums among many others. Often, these behaviours may significantly impact an individual’s, and their family’s, day to day life. Functional analysis is an assessment used to determine the function of behaviour (why an individual behaves the way they do), and helps determine the most effective treatment.

In her presentation, Katie will discuss what functional analysis is, general methodology, as well as relevant case studies and examples. Katie will also illustrate how sometimes results of functional analysis can be undifferentiated and idiosyncratic in nature, and further analysis is needed.
