• Ability tests address different aspects of general problem-solving ability• Diagnostic tests sample the information-processing efficiency in two
domains - processing of the sounds of words and perceptual speed• Attainment tests are of reading and spelling, particularly

Strategies and solutions for bullied children with Asperger's Syndrome
By Nick DubinBullying is a serious problem in schools andchildren on the autism spectrum are particularlyat risk of being victimised if they display ‘different’behaviour, such as not understanding rules,having bad handwriting or flapping their hands.
Being Bullied describes the various types ofpeer abuse–taunting, calling names, damagingproperty, stealing and cyber bullying, and thedevastating consequences, such as poor self-esteem, low academic achievement, depression or even suicide.
Narrated by Nick Dubin and featuring footage of his own childhood that illustrates behaviours that made him an easy target for bullies, the film also includes the stories of three individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome who talk about their experiences of being bullied.
The DVD outlines practical strategies forparents, professionals, schools and individualsbeing bullied on how to prevent bullying.

By Deborah Lipsky & Will RichardsS.C.A.R.E.D., which stands for Safe, Calm, Affirmation, Routine, Empathy and Develop, is an intervention strategy which was designed for those with autism who are suffering a ‘meltdown’, which is an extreme emotional/behavioural and often frightening response to stress or over-stimulation. It is a serious problem for not only autism sufferers but also their carers, and this guide offers strategies and practical techniques that will be a valuable reference tool for anyone in a first response position. The book contains eight easy-to-read chapters, with a full explanation of the programme, summarised information, tables, and do’s and don’ts checklists.
