Abstract This article reports on a longitudinal case study, which included site visits in Thailand from 2014 to 2015, and participant follow-up to mid-2018. It documents the lived experience of children from Syria, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Vietnam, and Myanmar in two different locations in Thailand: Bangkok and Mae Sot (a district close to Thailand-Myanmar border with a long history of economic migrants and refugees from Myanmar). It documents perspectives of children and the adults in their lives while in exile. It presents an analysis of the children’s perspectives on needs and how unmet needs for safety, basic materials, health care, and education put them at risk of arrest, detention, abuse, and exploitation, and impact their psychological development. Contextual factors such as available services, existing policies and laws are also discussed in relation to the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC).

Purpose: This report describes the development of focal choroidal excavation (FCE) and recurrent central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) following the treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) years earlier. Methods: A case report is presented. Results: A 30-year-old man previously treated for an active CNV returned several years later with subacute metamorphopsia. Optical coherence tomography and angiography demonstrated no recurrence of the CNV but instead found an FCE and associated CSCR in its place. Conclusion: Longitudinal follow-up with multimodal imaging demonstrated FCE with recurrent CSCR as possible sequelae of treated CNV.

This longitudinal qualitative study was conducted with Kosovo PhD students over a 3-year period who engaged in an ongoing intercultural education project at the University of Pristina’s Faculty of Education in Kosovo. The purpose of this article is to deepen the understanding of intercultural education with Kosovo as a critical case study. The data included pre-and post-open-ended surveys, one on one interviews, and follow up interviews regarding intercultural education during the longitudinal experiences. The findings of the study suggest the need to contextualize the issues of intercultural education and integrate local to global connections in relevant teaching, research, and service.

Art therapy is a creative therapy technique that uses art as the primary form of therapeutic expression and treatment. Both the process of therapy as well as reections on outcomes are therapeutic in nature. The paper presents the effect of art as a therapeutic intervention in a longitudinal case study conducted for a period of 8 months. A seven year old child, diagnosed as a case of Oppositional Deant Disorder (ODD) was brought for psychotherapeutic treatment by his parents. During the course of therapy, an effort was made to enhance the symbolic, imaginative and metalizing capacities by gradually increasing the range, depth and emotional richness of the art forms created by him. He was administered the Child Behavior Checklist thrice during the therapy; rstly as a pre-assessment before the beginning of the therapy, secondly after a period of 4 months and then after 8 months of therapy. The child showed signicant improvement in his scores on ODD items as testied by his parents. The follow up assessment showed a good maintenance of achieved improvements during the therapy. The study concludes in proposing the implementation of art based counseling and therapy as a treatment alternative for children with Oppositional Deant Disorders.

This longitudinal case study challenges the assumption that individuals with autism who have severely restricted speech and language skills have a poor prognosis for further development of expressive oral language. The study follows the development of a woman with autism from mutism at age 10 to acquisition of a range of spoken and written language skills at age 26. The intervention in which the woman participated and her skills pre- and post-intervention and at two follow-up assessments are documented. The results support the hypotheses that speech and language development may proceed after mutism associated with limited verbal imitation and phoneme production skills, that some skills may plateau or decline, and that both spoken and written language may become viable forms of communication.

This case report describes the positive outcome of a therapeutic intervention that integrated an intensive, residential component with follow-up telepractice for a 21 year old male who stutters. This therapy utilized an eclectic approach to intensive therapy in conjunction with a 12-month follow-up via video telepractice. The results indicated that the client benefited from the program as demonstrated by a reduction in percent stuttered syllables, a reduction in stuttering severity, and a change in attitudes and feelings related to stuttering and speaking.
