CBT for Social-Emotional Problems in Adolescents with NVLD
Miller shows her critical thinking and research skills in this research proposal. Miller explores CBT as a treatment option for people with Nonverbal Learning Disability (NVLD), a poorly understood learning disorder characterized by difficulties with visual-spatial concepts and social skills. Miller identifies a gap that existing research has yet to recognize: the larger breadth of research on social-emotional difficulties in people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Miller's ability to unearth this gap in the literature reflects her thorough research and a strong attention to detail. This proposal also demonstrates Miller's well-structured writing, with clear topics supported by multiple sources of evidence and connected with seamless transitions.
