Скачать или смотреть Prof. Ilan Dinstein - Early Diagnosis and Social Communication

The ARC was pleased to welcome Prof. Ilan Dinstein, associate professor in the departments of Psychology and of Cognitive and Brain Sciences at Ben-Gurion University (BGU), to talk about early diagnosis and social communication.

Prof. Dinstein discusses one of the goals at the Azrielli national centre for autism and neurodevelopment research - to assess the longitudinal development of children with autism as they receive currently available treatments and interventions in the Israeli healthcare and education systems. As part of this large project, a recently published paper demonstrated large differences in the development of social communication abilities across children diagnosed at different ages. Specifically, children diagnosed before the 2.5 years of age improved 3 times more on ADOS social affect scores in comparison to children diagnosis after this age. Prof. Dinstein discusses the results of this study and briefly covers two other studies comparing the development of children with ASD placed in mainstream versus special education settings.

Recorded as part of the ARClub talks (http://talks.cam.ac.uk/show/index/9692) on Monday 31st January 2022.
