Autism, also known as Autism Spectrum Disorder, has been a disorder that has been around for many generations, and has been classified as a “disease” by some scholars and doctors, but that is not the case. It is classified as a symptom of abnormal development in a pre-developed brain. Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is characterized by very impaired social interaction, verbal and non-verbal communication, and a sort of repetitive behavior that exists. Since there are many children…

One in sixty-eight children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) disorder each year in the United States (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2014). ASD is a developmental disorder that is best recognized deficits in communication ability, social skills, and repetitive patterns of behaviors, interests, and activities. The disorder impacts the ability of those diagnosed to function easily in society day to day. While ASD is a wide spread, pervasive disorder, we are only just…

Sensory Integration also known as Sensory Processing is a specialty area of occupational therapy that is based on over 40 years of theory and research. The term “sensory integration” refers to: the way the brain organizes sensations for engagement in occupation. Sensory Integration is most commonly discussed for children with Autism but has also been used for students with other developmental disabilities as well. When children or adults need assistance in their environments with sensory…

The purpose of the Determining Food Dye Content Lab was to identify the food dye coloring in green apple Gatorade, and determine the dye’s concentration to ultimately recreate a solution containing the same concentration of dyes as the original. To determine the concentration of the dyes present in the green apple Gatorade, a spectrometer was used to measure the wavelengths and absorbance values for the given dyes. A sample of the green apple Gatorade was tested in the spectrometer to measure…

Through the content analysis of the interview data, six themes reflecting participants’ knowledge of autism emerged: (a) belief that individuals with autism have control over their condition; (b) misconceptions about etiology of autism; (c) limited knowledge about attributes of autism; (d) previous experience with people with autism; (e) perception of others’ attitudes toward a peer with autism; and (f) sources of information. Belief that individuals with autism have control over their…

Political correctness has gone too far To simply question the use of political correctness can get you marked as a target by large leftist groups. Political correctness is defined by dictionary.com as being “Marked by or adhering to a typically progressive orthodoxy on issues involving especially ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or ecology.” The term “politically correct,” while originally meaning to be in line with political doctrine, was adopted and popularized by the New Left in the…

The light we see from the sun is not exactly the light that comes to the earth from the sun. We see sunlight as being whitish in color, but it actually is a blend of the colors of the rainbow. The reason we see it this way has to do with the way our eyes perceive color. This is because, “Our eye contains three kinds of light-sensitive cells, each sensing a different band of colors--one band centered in the red, one in the green and one in the blue” (“(S-4) The Many Colors of Sunlight,” 2006).…

Issue How to calculate the benefits that William Fininis should receive when his hearing was damaged while he was at work. Calculation Background The first step to calculate how much benefits one should receive when they lose hearing while at work is to take an Audiogram. An Audiogram is a test which shows one’s ability to hear in different situations. It tests one’s ability to hear a whisper, an adult conversation and busy traffic. The test is performed by speed range. The speed range varies…

Discussion Objectives The objectives for part A of the experiment are to use the formula n=d sin() where “n” is an integer (representing the number of “jumps”). Further objectives for this section include the accurate and precise measurement of the aforementioned distances. These distances (that between the light arrangement and the wall as well as that between two dots (n=1)) are then used in the equation to find sin() (Sin(x)= opposite/hypotenuse). The final goal of this part is to be able…
