This book examines opportunities and obstacles in achieving the digital inclusion of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It addresses basic requirements of the digital society and the concepts of digital inclusion (and exclusion), digital participation, and the disability digital divide as well as support for individuals with autism in co-creating digital devices. The book discusses the application of digital technologies across different contexts, including education, leisure activities, community life, daily living skills, and employment of individuals with autism.

Featured areas of coverage include:

  • Computer-based interventions for speech development, social communication, executive functions, and other skills in children with autism.
  • Digital health intervention for persons with ASD.
  • Risks for persons with ASD on the Internet (e.g., excessive use, addictive behavior, and cyberbullying).
  • Digital technology use in simulating job interviews, and teaching work skills.
  • Digital technology use in self-advocacy activities of individuals with autism.
Digital Inclusion of Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder is an essential reference for researchers, professors, graduate students, clinicians and related therapists and professionals in clinical child and school psychology, social work, behavioral therapy/rehabilitation, pediatrics, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, neurology, special education, child and adolescent psychiatry, and developmental psychology.
