Children with prenatal alcohol exposure may exhibit physical alterations and compromised cognitive functioning.

The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the impact of FASD on child… Show more
“…The book chapter described how the primary characteristics of FASD typically present within the school setting. 19 The literature review summarised the common characteristics and associated difficulties related to each of nine functional domains used in the Canadian guidelines for FASD diagnosis. 21 Data from Millar et al 21 and Coles et al 19 are synthesised in Table 3.…”

“…This review identified only two evaluated screening tools available for use by educators 20,22 and two current, peer-reviewed resources with information on FASD identification. 19,21 These tools are useful for screening neurobehavioural indicators prior to referral and diagnostic testing. However, the extent to which educators should be involved in screening children with suspected FASD is debated.…”
