The third course in this seven course series introduces the second domain of the SCERTS Model, Emotional Regulation (ER). Participants will learn about ER as a core challenge for individuals diagnosed with ASD. The developmental basis of emotional regulation is reviewed, as are the capacities of self-regulation and mutual regulation. Contrasts to traditional behavior management practices are made. Participants are also introduced common ER challenges at various stages of development. Sample objectives and Transactional Supports used to address those challenges within the SCERTS Model are also presented.
