3 Why be concerned about children's social inclusion? Peer interactions form the context within which children learn other developmental skills Social acceptance is not always the outcome for children with disabilities in inclusive programs (Guralnick, Hammond, Connor & Neville, 2006) There is evidence that children with disabilities may be socially excluded or isolated within early childhood settings Compared to typically developing children, preschool children with disabilities: Exhibit lower levels of social interactive play Form very few reciprocal friendships and Are less accepted by their peers (Guralnick, Connor, Hammond, Gottman & Kinnish, 1996; Guralnick & Groom, 1988; Hestenes & Carroll, 2000; Walker & Berthelsen, 2005) Difficulties with peer interaction experienced by young children with disabilities inhibit opportunities to fully participate in early childhood programs
4 Aims of the Research To explore the level of social inclusion of young children with ASD in early childhood education programs To examine the nature of the play and engagement in play activities of young children with ASD with their typically developing peers Participants 12 focus children (male) with a diagnosis of ASD enrolled in regular preschool settings Mean age months (SD 6.41) 30 typically developing comparison children Mean age months (SD 8.16)
5 Method Theory of Mind (false belief tasks) Changed location and unexpected contents Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) Receptive language Profile of Peer Relations Teacher rating of peer acceptance Prosocial/cooperative behaviour Aggressive/disruptive behaviour Passive/withdrawn behaviour Naturalistic Observations Time sample observations at five minute intervals across four free play periods of one hour each at each preschool (50 observations of each focus child) Observation categories Social categories (Onlooker, alone or solitary play, parallel play, social play, teacher interaction) Cognitive categories (Functional play, constructive play, dramatic play, games with rules)
6 Data analysis and results Non-parametric tests of significance (Mann-Whitney U, p <.05, two tailed) were used to test for differences on mean scores between typically developing and focus children Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test Focus children significantly lower on PPVT (Mann-Whitney U = 51.50, p =.001) Theory of Mind Tasks No significant difference between groups Comparison between focus children and typically developing children on profile of peer relations *indicates p <.05, **indicates p <.01, ***indicates p < Acceptance* Aggression Prosocial*** Withdrawn** Focus child Comparison group
7 Comparison between focus children and typically developing children on observational data (*indicates( p <.05, **indicates p <.01, ***indicates p <.001) Onlooker Solitary play** Parallel play Social play* Teacher interaction** Functional play (p =.056) Constructive play Dramatic play Games with rules Focus children Non-focus children Focus children Non-focus children
8 Summary of Results Teacher report indicated that focus children: Were less well accepted by the peer group than typically developing children Displayed less prosocial/ cooperative behaviour and more passive/ withdrawn behaviour than typically developing children Observational data indicated that focus children: Were more likely to be engaged in solitary play and functional play and less likely to be engaged in social play than typically developing children Were more likely than typically developing children to be engaged in interacting with the teacher Were engaged at comparable levels to typically developing children across most categories of play activity and social interaction Overall, compared to typically developing children, children with disabilities: Exhibited lower levels of socially interactive play Engaged in higher levels of isolate play Engaged in more frequent interactions with the teacher
9 Discussion While teacher report indicated that the focus children had significant deficits in their social skills, observational analyses showed children were not significantly different in most social and play activities in which they participated compared to focus children Significant differences between focus children and typically developing children in receptive language ability (PPVT) No significant differences between focus children and typically developing children on a range of tasks requiring an understanding of Theory of Mind However, both teacher report and observational data indicated that, although focus children participated socially in the preschool setting, they spent proportionally less time than their peers in activities requiring higher levels of social skill (e.g., social play)
10 Implications Due to the lack of significant differences in performance between focus children and the typically developing children on the ToM tasks, a focus on social-cognitive skills may not be as useful with this age group as direct teaching of play and social skills Active adult intervention in play and social activities is essential in inclusive early education programs Effective teaching should be focussed on: Direct instruction of functional social skills Social relationships as the catalyst for learning Social communication as the basis for an integrated teaching-learning process.
