We also found that elevated repetitive behaviours were related to broader difficulties incl hyperactivity, conduct, emotional, and peer-problems @NDAUCardiff

[Jen Keating @jenkeatss]

New paper! We explored repetitive behaviours in a transdiagnostic sample of children with emotional, cognitive, and behavioural difficulties. Results support a link between repetitive behaviours and anxiety found in clinical samples. Read it here: https://t.co/nq1X62MIap

Such a great time @DCD_14 conference with these wonderful researchers (such as clinicians and families 🙏). We have learned a lot during these 3 days! It is now our responsibility to raise awareness about #DCD and develop concrete actions 💪 #DCD14

Had a great first day at @DCD_14 presenting our @Waterloo_TWF funded project on AON activity during action observation and execution in DCD and discussing our findings on sensory processing in DCD! #DCD14

Really exciting and important work on sensory rooms - there’s huge need for research into how these rooms can best be used!

[Wales Autism Research Centre @WARC_Cardiff]

🎉Work by @katy_unwin, @DrGeorgiePowell & Catherine Jones is out now on how autistic children use sensory rooms.🎉

We found that providing control of sensory changes to autistic children may help create better conditions for learning. https://t.co/mOUDid00RO

@hughcarrhere @JOEdotie Congrats Hugh - best of luck! 🥳🙌
