Van ijzendoorn and kroonernberg conducted a meta analysis of 32 studies in 8 different countries. They found that difference between cultures were small, secure attachments was the most common in every country, followed by insecure avoidant. These cross cultural similarties support the view that attachment is innate and that different cultural practices have little effect on attachment behaviour. Another study conducted by Takahahi demonstrated differences between cultures when the strange situation was used. 60 middle-class Japanese infants 1 years old and their mothers were observed in the Strange Situation It was found that 68% of infants were classified as securely attached/ 32% as resistant-insecure / none were classified as avoidant-insecure The Japanese infants were extremely disturbed when left alone.
2 Triad of impairments is the term that describes the difficulties that people with autism experience in differing degrees. Because all people are different, the way autism effects them is also different. 3 Autistic individuals may have symptoms that are independent of the diagnosis, but that can affect individual and the family.

Hunters Syndrome Michele Frizzell HCS/245 June 16, 2014 Erich Widemark Hunter Syndrome Most infants at one point or another get an ear infection, runny nose or a cold. As a parent, what would you do if your child had symptoms such as these? What diagnosis would a pediatrician give? The commonality of these symptoms in infants is high; therefore, Hunter Syndrome, or Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS II) would be the least likely diagnosis. The purpose of this paper is to educate individuals about Hunter Syndrome (MPS II).
Carefully introduce new information within a familiar structure in order for the child to learn and progress. Downplay the importance of handwriting skills in autistic children, since some motor skills can be compromised by autism. Instead, allow the autistic child to type answers on a keyboard. Place the monitor close to the keyboard, as many autistic children may have difficulty in establishing the connection between the two objects. Eliminate loud sounds, such as bells, PA systems and buzzers, from the learning environment.
Age and skill filters and a Math Skills Wheel assist in finding the right game to address kids' learning needs. The varied approach to gaming is motivating, and if kids are overdoing it on screen time, there are suggestions for hands-on, skill-based activities for home and school. A Research section includes summary reports and pilot test results, and the site is available in Spanish. How parents can help * Connect with kids' teachers to find out where they're struggling, then use the site’s filters to pick games that help them practice those skills. * Encourage kids to set goals for different games ("I'll get to level 5," "I'll answer all addition questions correctly") and track their achievements with stickers or other small awards.
Facial features are the most noticeable before 3 years of age (Chandrasena, Mukherjee, & Turk, 2008). In terms of growth, children diagnosed with FAS are significantly below the 3rd percentile or average height and/or weight (Chandrasena et al., 2008). Damage to the central nervous system is expressed in neurological, functional, and structural impairments (Chandrasena et al., 2008). It may not be visible until the child is school aged. It is during this time their lack of development or growth will stand out in comparison to the other children their age.
It is a neurobiological disorder with a strong heredity factor. It is defined by impairments in social communication, interaction, and repetitive interests. What differentiates it from other typical autism is the absence of significant learning difficulty and with an IQ of 70 or higher. In fact many children with AS meet the criteria for being gifted. More and more children are being diagnosed with AS during the school years.
If children with Down syndrome are using computers earlier and earlier, then perhaps, new skills, such as keyboarding, and new software applications, such as e-mail and word processing, can be integrated into educational programs. And with a better understanding of how these individuals with Down
