Abstract

Facilitated communication involves hand-over-hand or hand-on-forearm support of students as they communicate through pointing at pictures, letters or other objects. Over time, it is expected that the hand and arm support can be faded back. This observational study describes an effort to introduce facilitated communication to 22 students, ranging in age from 3 years 10 months to 21 years, in several US public schools. The students are all labeled autistic and do not speak or speak only with echolalic phrases. The findings include observations of the students communicating with facilitation, language samples, and conversations by the students. The students reveal unexpected literacy and numeracy skills. The appearance of these abilities raises a number of questions concerning prior assumptions about autism, communication, independence and interdependence, and the education of students with and without disabilities.

  • None of the six qualities used by Biklen et al. (1991) provide conclusive proof of the validity of FC.

    “However, it can be argued that none of these six qualities provide conclusive proof of the validity of FC.”

  • All of the participants had similar diagnoses to those individuals typically included in FC studies, including studies claiming a positive impact for FC.

    “However, all of the participants had similar diagnoses to those individuals typically included in FC studies (e.g.Montee, Miltenberger, & Wittrock, 1995), including studies claiming a positive impact for FC (e.g.Biklen et al., 1991;Tuzzi, 2009).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
