An Overview of Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions for Promoting Adaptive Skills of Children with Angelman Syndrome
Journal Title: International Journal of Psychology and Psychoanalysis - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
This paper provides the reader with a concise overview of the empirical evidences available in the last decade on the use of cognitive-behavioral interventions for promoting adaptive skills of children with Angelman syndrome. The results were fairly positive, although no documents were found on the implementation of assistive technology-based programs. Some useful suggestions for future research and practice within this framework were briefly discussed.
