摘要:
Conventional tests of infant—toddler development confound the measures used to infer mental ability with the child's disability. A new approach involving assessment of central information processing ability is described as a complement to conventional tests that permits the identification of intact mental ability in the face of pervasive developmental delays and autism. Intact processing ability along with a profile of expressive development not only allows for a differential diagnosis but permits more accurate assessment of mental ability and more appropriate intervention strategies.

摘要:
Self-concept is the abstract idea of an individual held by that person. This article describes six aspects of the self-concept that develop in toddlerhood: (1) self-recognition, (2) self-representation, (3) self-description, (A) self-assertion, (5) self-evaluation, and (6) self-regulation. After a brief historical overview, the theoretical and empirical background and measurement examples are presented for each of these domains of self-concept. Finally, the authors use information about caregivers' influence on the self-concept and the overlap with mastery motivation to suggest applications of this model. The intervention ideas are based on three dimensions of the socializing environment: (1) the provision of inanimate objects, (2) emotional communication, and (3) instrumental interaction.

摘要:
Clinicians of all disciplines and in all settings must reexamine the philosophical basis for determining the frequency and intensity of early intervention services. A shift to a flexible, outcomes-driven model featuring a family-centered, ecological approach ensures the likelihood that the recommendations for services flow from a thorough analysis of child and family priorities rather than from a traditional emphasis on static and predetermined assumptions centered exclusively on improving children's developmental skills. This article discusses the importance of addressing the question of the frequency and intensity of early intervention services within a family context, while emphasizing that complex issues cannot always be resolved with a one-size-fits-all solution. Multidimensional guidelines for selecting early intervention services are proposed, and, finally, the dilemmas inherent in implementing these guidelines are identified.

摘要:
Emotional growth and well-being are as important for very young children as cognitive and physical development. As managed care approaches are increasingly used for health care in the public sector, the needs for identification and treatment of mental health problems can often be overlooked. However, the authors maintain that many of the goals of strong early childhood programs are very compatible with managed care approaches, if careful planning occurs. The authors also suggest various strategies and tactics that advocates for very young children can use to ensure that public managed care systems address the mental health and emotional needs of very young children.

摘要:
Infant development is dependent on interactional relationships. Successful family-centered early intervention must address the relationships between the parent and child, child and clinician, and parent and clinician to promote infant development. The interventionist must also consider the unique family system and the family schema and paradigm when designing the intervention plan. The intention of this article is to use three case studies to illustrate the use of an intervention model that focuses on fostering the development of family relationships as a means of meeting identified outcomes from an Individualized Family Service Plan.

摘要:
Public Law 99-457 has promoted family/professional collaboration and family-guided practices in early childhood special education. At the same time, the cultural and linguistic diversity of this country requires service providers to refine skills in working with families whose backgrounds are different from their own. This article describes the model, strategies, materials, and outcomes of Project CRAFT (Culturally Responsive and Family-focused Training), which is designed to meet these professional development needs. Culturally diverse family/ professional teams were trained, supported, and mentored to provide inservice training on cultural competencies to service providers working with young children with disabilities.

摘要:
The Touchpoints model combines relationship-building and child development into a framework that providers can use to enhance their work with families. This article is focused both on how individuals can change their practice and how teams of providers can train others in their communities to implement Touchpoints principles. It traces the progress of Touchpoints from its guiding assumptions to the development of its training models, which are geared toward multidisciplinary providers. The ultimate goal is that Touchpoints will be a mechanism to move beyond the current state of fragmentation of services to join families more effectively as allies within a more caring, seamless system.
