Facilitated Communication since 1995: A Review of Published Studies.
Mostert, Mark P.
Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, v31 n3 p287-313 Jun 2001
This review examines studies published since 1995 on use of Facilitated Communication (FC) with individuals with autism. Findings support conclusions of previous reviews that proponents' claims are largely unsubstantiated. It also critiques and discounts the claims of two studies purporting to offer empirical evidence of FC efficacy using control procedures. (Contains references.) (Author/DB)
