Twice-Exceptional Autism And Home Education: A Phenomenological Analysis, Tiffany Brook Hartman
Doctoral Dissertations and Projects
It is common for autistic and particularly twice-exceptional (2e) children to be schooled from home at a higher rate than their neurotypical peers. Much of the current research investigating this phenomenon is conducted from the perspective of the public school system. This point of view is generally critical of the curriculum taught in the home, has largely limited parental voices in the literature, and overlooks possible circumstances in the public school system that might have led families to choose to homeschool.

A mixed-method multiple-baseline experimental design explored the relationship of frequency of attention-maintained maladaptive behaviors and positive parent communication in a fourth through sixth grade special education classroom using visual analysis and a Wampold-Warsham (Wampold & Brown, 2005) statistical design.

However, when looking at the visual analysis of the multiple baseline design graphs, one can see a clear decrease in each of the participants …
