Developmental visual-spatial disorder (nonverbal learning disability): what it is and how to recognize it and provide intervention in clinical practice

Participants will: 1) become familiar with criteria being proposed for the DSM; 2) gain hands-on practice using the developmental visual-spatial disorder (DVSD) criteria by evaluating case vignettes that include neuropsychological and clinical data; 3) know prevalence estimates of nonverbal learning disability (NVLD) and how they relate to DVSD prevalence; and 4) learn how to modify interventions and obtain school-based support for youth with DVSD.
