Occupational therapists can apply the DMM directly, and in conjunction with other modalities. Kozlowska [93] [17] describes incorporating occupational therapy with pediatric medicine, hypnosis, physiotherapy, neurology, and DMM-Attachment theory. Occupational therapists can increase a child's day-to-day functioning and manage emotional arousal.
The effectiveness of Floortime was examined in four randomized controlled trials in which the control group receive the usual therapies (e.g., speech therapy, occupational therapy). [ 16 ] [ 17 ] [ 18 ] No evidence of effectiveness has been found across the many trials that have been performed [ 19 ] Language function in the Floortime groups ...
Dynamic systems theory; Client-centered frame of reference This frame of reference is developed from the work of Carl Rogers. It views the client as the center of all therapeutic activity, and the client's needs and goals direct the delivery of the occupational therapy process. [128] Cognitive-behavioural frame of reference
Individualized systems aim to address difficulties with communication, organization, generalization, concepts, sensory processing, change and relating to others. [7] Whereas some interventions focus on addressing areas of weakness, the TEACCH approach works with existing strengths and emerging skill areas.
Relationship Development Intervention (RDI) is a trademarked proprietary treatment program for autism spectrum disorders (ASD), based on the belief that the development of dynamic intelligence is the key to improving the quality of life for autistic people.

During sessions, activities are presented to both challenge capabilities and assist and regulating a child (Parham & Mailloux, 2015). [16] Activities are often specially tailored to meet individual needs.
In sports biomechanics, dynamical systems theory has emerged in the movement sciences as a viable framework for modeling athletic performance and efficiency. It comes as no surprise, since dynamical systems theory has its roots in Analytical mechanics. From psychophysiological perspective, the human movement system is a highly intricate network ...
Autism spectrum disorder [a] (ASD), or simply autism, is a neurodevelopmental disorder "characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and social interaction across multiple contexts" and "restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities". [11]
