The research paper that took over my life...

You've obviously noticed my absence from posting over the past month or so, the reason being a 25+ page research paper required to finish my minor in psychology.  I originally designed a research study involving young children with autism and language, but my advising professor delivered her first child prematurely, which made the study nearly impossible.  In the long run, I think this worked out quite well and I'm glad to say conducting this literature review may have influenced my interests as a music therapist quite a bit.  If you are at all curious and have a bit of time on your hands, please feel free to read my paper regarding social behaviors, communication, and language in individuals with autism.
