Abstract

Date Presented 03/26/20

Children with FASD experience self-regulation deficits. This study identified the effects of the Alert Program on children with FASD. All participants had sensory, emotional, and behavioral regulation deficits identified by the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function 2 (BRIEF 2) and Sensory Profile 2. Results on the BRIEF 2 were both clinically and statistically significant with a specific increase in behavioral and emotional regulation skills.
