From:
Guralnick, M. J. (1998). Effectiveness of early intervention
for vulnerable children: A developmental perspective.
American Journal on Mental Retardation, 102, 319–345.
Dr.
Guralnick's work in this area focuses on the analysis of the
effectiveness of
early intervention techniques and programs for various groups
of children at-risk for and those with established developmental
disabilities. Recent work is concerned with the design
of early childhood systems and identifying corresponding principles
and practices that can be utilized by communities to improve
their early intervention systems of services and supports.
This is referred to as the Developmental
Systems Model.
