This topic comes up when people haven’t heard of DIRFloortime®. They ask, “What about research? Can we justify this approach with research?” ⁠Dr. Diane Cullinane joins us this episode to review some of the research supporting DIRFloortime. She is a developmental pediatrician and an Expert DIRFloortime® practitioner in South Pasadena, one of the founders of the⁠ DIR® Coalition of California⁠ which advocates for DIRFloortime® and the author of Behavioural Challenges in Children with Autism and other Special needs: The Developmental Approach⁠. Dr. Cullinane wrote a white paper summarizing the research to date in 2017 which is on the research page of the International Council on Development and Learning.
