Autism Extravaganza: Autism & Executive Function: Core features, manifestations of symptoms and EBPs
Join us for the 19th Annual Autism Extravaganza! Essential ingredient of personal, social, and interpersonal success is the ability to adapt with resiliency during changing environment and challenging times. A healthy prefrontal system enables individuals to adjust behaviors, reappraise emotions and redirecting actions flexibly to achieve goals in service of the future-self. Evidence from neuroscience and cognitive psychology suggests that Executive Function skills are highly malleable and are sensitive to training by cultivating future-forward emotions. In this presentation, Sucheta Kamath will discuss the interplay between core features of autism and Executive Function and motivational vs. self-regulatory challenges experienced by children, adolescents and adults with ASD. This session will also present EBPs to improve future-oriented reasoning and emotional regulation that effectively predicts performance challenges, improves anticipation of glitchches, and handling of mistakes.
