The effectiveness of a school based Early Intensive Behavioural Intervention (EIBI) program was assessed over a two-year period for a cohort of 16 pre-school children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their families. Children with a mean age of 40 months, were assessed prior to intervention, after 1 year of intervention, and again after 2 years. Significant improvements were observed on measures of adaptive behaviour, communication ability and challenging behaviour.

- The study investigates the link between public stigma, self-stigma, and attitudes toward seeking psychological help (ATPH) among students in the United Arab Emirates, finding that internalized stigma mediates this relationship.
- The research, involving 114 students, revealed that both public and self-stigma were notably high, although psychology students showed lower stigma levels and more positive ATPH.
- The results suggest that stigma reduction initiatives in the UAE should focus on addressing internalized stigma and taking cultural contexts into account.
Purpose: This study describes perceived stress and coping strategies as they occur within a college-aged population from an Arab background. Variables were compared between psychology students and their peers from other faculties.
Design And Methods: A cross-sectional, correlational design was used for this study.
