2014 Webinar #1 DVD: Neurodevelopment in the Adolescent with FASD
This first webinar of 2014 provides the most up-to-date information on FASD, including elements of diagnosis and the view of the disorder as a spectrum. The webinar explains how basic neurobehavioral deficits - neurocognitive, self-regulation, and adaptive behaviors - are demonstrated in adolescent behavior. The presentation compares the expression of “normal” adolescent development (social, search for independence, consequences of behavior, executive function, etc.) with adolescent development in youth with FASD. Implications for self, family, and society are also discussed.
