Assessment as Intervention: Utilizing video replay as a social emotional intervention
Communication develops in the context of primary relationships. Supporting social emotional development and communication must begin with the parent-child relationship which is the foundation of all future learning. The WI EHDI Program has utilized the Parent Child Early Relational Assessment and the newly published Brief Early Relational Assessment (B-ERA) to identify areas of strength and concern in the early parent-child relationship development. An essential component of the B-ERA is a video replay with the parents. This video replay invites a parent and provider to look together at their relationship with the child. It facilitates an opportunity to explore their sense of enjoyment and challenges in parenting this child and the meaning of their child and their child’s behavior. As behavior IS communication, both the relational profile and the video replay discussion can then be used to develop relational goals that support both communication development and social emotional development. This session will have video case studies to demonstrate the tool and the ways it has supported deafness-specific early intervention.
- Participants will understand what the B-ERA is and how it is administered.
- Participants will have new strategies for assisting with social emotional evaluation.
- Participants will understand the value of video replay as a social emotional intervention.
