Episode 2: Parent Coaching and NDBI's - Drs. Lauren Hampton and Hannah Fipp-Rosenfield

In this episode, we have a chat with Dr. Lauren Hampton and Dr. Hannah Fipp-Rosenfield about their work supporting caregivers implementing naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions or NDBIs. Hosted by one of our lab's undergraduates, sophomore Saylor Mullarkey, and master's student Kelly Cattano, this episode explores the intersection of research and practice by diving into our guests' experiences in speech-language pathology and behavior analysis and the ways this informs their research today.  About the Guests:  Dr. Lauren Hampton: An associate professor in the Department of Special Education at The University of Texas at Austin, Dr. Hampton conducts research surrounding the early identification of communication delays and challenging behaviors, and autism characteristics to optimize the use of parent-mediated interventions for these groups. As a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, Dr. Hampton has experience in many roles within early intervention settings, focusing on collaboration with children and their families. Dr. Hannah Fipp-Rosenfield: Currently a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Little Longhorn and IDEA Research Labs at The University of Texas at Austin, Dr. Fipp-Rosenfield's work focuses on applying NDBIs for young autistic children, specifically focusing on the role of parent mediation in this process. Her research stems from her education as a speech-language pathologist and also seeks to engage with community stakeholders to adapt practices surrounding early childhood interventions Check out the website for the Little Longhorn Lab!
