Project SCOPE
Introduction: Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) is a complex condition resulting from prenatal substance exposure that has become increasingly prevalent as a result of the opioid epidemic. NAS can lead to long-term developmental challenges. Interdisciplinary teams with experience working with children with disabilities that focus on social determinants of health can be effective at supporting families affected by NAS. Unfortunately, interdiscipl…
Economic impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic on families of children with autism and other developmental disabilities
These findings suggest that families of children with autism, families of lower socio-economic status, and families of racial and ethnic minority groups experienced fewer work flexibilities and greater financial distress during the pandemic. Future research can be used to assess if these impacts are sustained over time
The use of the Echo modelTM for education as an innovative approach to educator professional development
After entering the workforce, educators may face novel problems of practice that require additional training. Ongoing professional learning and development (PD) is meant to provide the additional training necessary to ensure educators are prepared to meet those challenges. PD offerings should meet the recommendations of Adult Learning Theory, the Model for Teacher Change, and recommended best practices for adult learning and PD. The ECHO Model fo…
How academic podcasting can change academia and its relationship with society
In this paper we explore the potential of academic podcasting to effect positive change within academia and between academia and society. Building on the concept of “epistemic living spaces,” we consider how podcasting can change how we evaluate what is legitimate knowledge and methods for knowledge production, who has access to what privileges and power, the nature of our connections within academia and with other partners, and how we experience…
A comparison of costs of two forms of educator professional development in Wyoming
Pre- and Postnatal Fine Particulate Matter Exposure and Childhood Cognitive and Adaptive Function
Increasing evidence exists for an association between early life fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) exposure and several neurodevelopmental outcomes, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD); however, the association between PM 2.5 and adaptive and cognitive function remains poorly understood. Participants included 658 children with ASD, 771 with a non-ASD developmental disorder, and 849 population controls from the Study to Explore Early Developm…
It’s time for a change
AI/BCT is a promising method of community engagement that is responsive to cultural differences. It is a strength-based approach focused on increasing the use of strategies that already work within the community. Therefore, it has the potential to reduce health disparities in the Latino community who have loved ones with autism ASD much more rapidly than traditional methods of inquiry.

Emotional Mimicry Beyond the Face
Emotional mimicry—quick and spontaneous matching of another’s expressions—is a well-documented phenomenon that is associated with numerous social outcomes. Although the mechanisms underlying mimicry are not fully understood, there is growing awareness that it is more than a one-to-one motor matching of others’ expressions and may be the result of neural simulation. If true, it is possible that mimicry could extend to other parts of the body, even…
Gray space and green space proximity associated with higher anxiety in youth with autism
Don’t Listen With Your Mouth Full
Theories of speech perception agree that visual input enhances the understanding of speech but disagree on whether physically mimicking the speaker improves understanding. This study investigated whether facial motor mimicry facilitates visual speech perception by testing whether blocking facial motor action impairs speechreading performance. Thirty-five typically developing children (19 boys; 16 girls; M age = 7 years) completed the Revised Crai…
Mimicry of Dynamic Emotional and Motor-Only Stimuli
Simple reciprocal matching behaviors, such as facial mimicry, appear fundamental to social development and interpersonal processes. Identifying mechanisms and moderators of these reactions to others' behaviors is thus important to understanding basic social–emotional functioning and specific clinical syndromes. This experiment extends early electromyographic (EMG) research (Berger & Hadley, 1975) to explore whether rapid, subtle mimicry involves …
More than mere mimicry? The influence of emotion on rapid facial reactions to faces
Within a second of seeing an emotional facial expression, people typically match that expression. These rapid facial reactions (RFRs), often termed mimicry, are implicated in emotional contagion, social perception, and embodied affect, yet ambiguity remains regarding the mechanism(s) involved. Two studies evaluated whether RFRs to faces are solely nonaffective motor responses or whether emotional processes are involved. Brow (corrugator, related …
