  16. Case: “BF” • PRE – TREATMENT Assessment • Delay in development of verbal and non-verbal communication • Lack of social or emotional reciprocity • Stereotyped and repetitive motor manners, impaired fine motor • Tourettes-like physical spasms, and high-pitched vocalizations • Failure to develop peer relationships appropriate to developmental level, or to spontaneously engage peers in play activities • Interrupted sleep patterns, and nocturnal enuresis • Aggressive behavior toward peers and service providers, including hitting, scratching, grabbing and biting • POST– TREATMENT Observations and Parental Reports • Verbalizations changed from primarily prompted and time-delayed to spontaneous and real-time • Spontaneous displays of affection • Decrease in repetitive behaviors and verbalizations • Increased motoric and verbal self-regulation • Increased voluntary interaction with peers in social and school environments • Improved sleep patterns, and decreased nocturnal enuresis • Dramatic decrease in aggressive behaviors, and increase in ability to tolerate frustration (c) 2009 Thomas F. Collura
