Background
• Development:▫ Bilingual SLPs ▫ Home-based ECI Services▫ Need for family involvement When families are involved in the intervention
process, language enrichment is ongoing rather than during “therapy” only (Rosetti, 2001)
Without family involvement, intervention is unlikely to be successful (Bronfenbrebrenner, 1974)

a. Language Enrichment
• Parents use of language-based strategies leads to ▫ Increased receptive language skills in the first year
(Baumwell, Tamis-LeMonda & Bornstein, 1997) ▫ Increased receptive and expressive language skills in
the second and third years of life (Olson, Bates & Bayles, 1986)
▫ Greater receptive vocabulary at 12 years of age (Beckwith & Cohen, 1989)
![Page 9: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
a. Language Enrichment (cont’d)
• Mother’s use of labeling and increased periods of interaction lead to increases in receptive vocabulary and greater expansion of expression in older children (Tomasello & Farrar, 1986)
• Participation by fathers in early childhood programs has been shown to be beneficial to the child, father and other family members (Frey, Fewell, & Vadasy, 1989; Krauss, 1993)
![Page 10: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
b. Empowerment
• Empowering parents increases their likelihood of accessing information pertaining to their child’s development
![Page 11: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
c. Self-efficacy
• Empowerment leads to self efficacy or the belief that they can make a difference in their child’sdevelopment (Dempsey & Dunst, 2004)
![Page 12: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
d. Why participation is critical
• When families are involved in the intervention process, language enrichment is ongoing rather than during “therapy” only (Rosetti, 2001)
• Without family involvement, intervention is unlikely to be successful (Bronfenbrebrenner, 1974)

Teacher and Family Perspective
The therapist just plays with
my child.
They just sit and talk with
me and do nothing with
my child.This is all too overwhelming.
I forget what to do after the
therapist leaves.
I don’t have time in my day
to do this.

Speech Pathologist Perspective
Families don’t always follow through with
my suggestions.
I can’t get families to
incorporate ideas into daily
routines.
I don’t have easily accessible
resources to share with families.
Many times families don’t
keep appointments.

Theoretical Models on Social Systems
Research
a. Maslow’s Hierarchy of basic needsb. Kubler-Ross’ 5 stages of grief
![Page 29: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
a. Maslow’s Hierarchy of basic needs
![Page 30: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
b. Kubler-Ross’ Five Stages of Grief
• Denial (this isn't happening to me!)• Anger (why is this happening to me?)• Bargaining (I promise I'll be a better person
if...)• Depression (I don't care anymore)• Acceptance (I’m ready for whatever comes)
![Page 31: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Research Findings Pertaining to Family Factors
• Mothers with limited family support tend to withdraw from programs early (Luker & Chalmers, 1990)
• Mothers engaged in family conflict show lower rates of involvement (Herzog, Cherniss, & Menzel, 1986)
• Mothers engaged in substance abuse showed lower rates of involvement (Navaie-Waliser et al, 2000)
• Mothers who are anticipating a change in residence also showed lower rates of participation (National Committee to Prevent Child Abuse, 1996)
![Page 32: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Factors Affecting Family Involvement• Family Factors▫ over which we have minimal influence but need to
understand▫ over which we have more influence
• Minimal influence▫ Social-emotional needs▫ Economic needs▫ Cultural parameters
• More influence▫ Education about disability▫ Attendance▫ Engagement in the intervention process
![Page 33: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Provider Factors Affecting Parent Involvement
▫ Consistency and reliability▫ Quantity (amount of
services)▫ Recognizing your
assumptions▫ Understanding family
needs ▫ Engaging all family
members▫ Ability to adjust strategies
to match family style
▫ Communicating rationale for intervention techniques
▫ Clearly specifying what families should do between intervention sessions
▫ Setting expectations ▫ Staff communication▫ Staff education and
training▫ Staff turnover rates
![Page 34: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Research Findings Pertaining to Provider Factors
• The more services a child/family receives, the more progress the child makes
• High staff turnover rates reduce family involvement ▫ Gomby (2007)
• Quantity--There were some interesting studies that showed that white families received more services than others. Hispanics were rated as more engaged. African Americans received less child-focused activities.▫ Wagner (2003)
![Page 35: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Case Study #1: Understanding Kubler-Ross’ stages of grief
How would you work with a family that is in denial?ExampleInterventionist: Lets work on the word “more”.Parent: She says that.Interventionist: Great, how about the words, mom or
dad?Parent: She says that too.Interventionist: She only says twenty words and she is
two years oldParent: We understand what she wants
![Page 36: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Case Study #2:A client has been diagnosed with a receptive
and expressive language disorder. How would you explain the rationale behind these suggestions and strategies?
• Roll a ball back and forth with your child.• Add a word to what your child says and
repeat the words back together.• Give your child more time to form a response.

3. Connecting Therapy to Reality
Applying research to our family sessions
![Page 39: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
How do we improve outcomes?
We know it’s important, how do we do it?
1. Provide specific instructions 2. Provide a rationale3. Keep it simple and
consistent4. Have it pertain to a family
event or routine5. Set expectations6. Have something written7. In their native language8. Follow through
• Make sure caregivers understand:▫ WHAT?▫ HOW? ▫ WHY?
• Assess the caregivers • Give positive reinforcement• Take risks

• Frequency and consistency • The more a child hears a phrase the more likely
they are to use it• Use phrases that the child is able to imitate
Language Development
![Page 49: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
• Imitation is vital for speech and language development (Rogers & Williams, 2006)
• Teach the child how to imitate, by imitating their sounds and movements
Language Development
![Page 50: Increasing Parent and Teacher Involvement: Employing Research Discoveries to Improve Communication Skills in Young Children](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022030317/54692a3daf7959b56e8b6b02/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
• Each routine focuses on different vocabulary• Multisensory learning for language targets• Label objects, actions and descriptors• Repeat object labels – the more a child hears a
word, the more likely they are to use it
Language Development
