Consultation with Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorders about Their Experience of Short-term Residential Care.
Preece, David
British Journal of Learning Disabilities, v30 n3 p97-104 Sep 2002
Three case studies investigated the effect of the characteristics of autism upon researchers' abilities to elicit children's (ages 7-14) opinions about short-term residential care. Autism affected all three children's abilities to participate in the consultation process, they were calmer with known adults, and visually mediated methods strengthened communication.
