(SCIP is a 16-session, drama-based intervention for youth ...)
SCIP is a 16-session, drama-based intervention for youth ages 8-14 on the autism spectrum. The authors blend current research from neuropsychology and information from the field of creative drama to help students accurately perceive and respond to nonverbal aspects of social interactions, such as facial expressions, body language, and tone of voice. Students are asked to participate in process dramas and take on roles that explore various outcomes. During role-plays, students learn to divide complex social interactions into sequential parts, discuss the emotions involved, and act out a variety of possible responses.
