Developmental Assessments

To effectively plan for services for young handicapped children, early objective developmental assessments are necessary. Although caution must be exercised in their use, assessment measures for infants can help to prevent, ameliorate, or uncover the difficulties that the handicapped child might face. By using a battery of assessments, a profile of the child's abilities, strengths, weaknesses, and disabilities is yielded.

Intervention services for preschool visually impaired children are known to be critical, but identification and referral must occur before services can be provided. With the passage of P.L. 99-457, services are now mandatory for handicapped children from birth. This study examined a number of demographic factors related to the population of handicapped preschoolers who are visually impaired. Among the data collected were the number of children, their visual diagnoses, the source of referral, the types of services provided, the certification of teachers, and how P.L. 99-457 is perceived to be related to visually impaired infants and young children.

Infants And Young Children

Infants and young children who are severely visually impaired from birth show consistent delays in concept development, compared to their sighted peers. This article focuses on the impact of severe visual impairment on the development of those play skills that facilitate concept development and discusses the ways in which intervention can enhance play experiences for infants and young children with severe visual impairments.

Parent Program

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.
