communication interventions / disability
Facilitated communication (FC, "supported typing") is not a valid communication technique: controlled authorship studies unanimously show that FC-generated messages are authored by the facilitator rather than the person with a disability, no new validating evidence has emerged, and every major professional body opposes its use — so statements produced through FC, including abuse allegations, cannot be attributed to the person with the disability.
