Eye-tracking technology

Parent’s perspective on the psychosocial impact of their child’s use of the technology and satisfaction with using the technology

Eye-tracking may be perceived as a worthwhile and potentially satisfactory technology to support individuals with Rett Syndrome in communicating.

First, goal rating was biased in favor of

Improvement due to the dual roles played by the therapists

In this study and their relationship with families. Second, differences in how the treating and non-treating therapists were able to rate the goals, given that

Non-treating therapists only viewed the videos.

Intervention package - graphic mode, aided communication system

Teaching multiple,

Aided communication requests for persons with Rett Syndrome

The findings suggest

Implications related to emerging evidence on the intervention methods to teach

Requesting skills to this population, and future research directions for communication intervention options for persons with severe communication impairment

And limited motor repertoires.

First, relying on idiosyncratic behaviors as a sole communicative means is a potential limitation. Second, there was a significant amount of overall variability throughout the study. Third,

The laser prompt was not faded for the last request. Fourth, the stimulus prompts were

Not faded for any of the requests.

Field observations were only performed at

The end of the study, resulting in limited material for describing children’s use in everyday life, as well

As their independence in computer use and social interaction with family at the earliest ages.
