Volden is a speech-language pathologist and educational psychologist,
affiliated with the Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology at
the University of Alberta. Her research interests include development
of pragmatic language skills and social cognition, with a particular
interest in how these skills develop in children, adolescents and
adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). In the long run, she
is interested both in determining the foundation for the social communicative
problems displayed by children with ASD and in developing effective
intervention strategies. As a member of the CAIRN Steering committee,
Joanne looks forward to collaborating with parents, researchers, and
clinicians in research projects about communicative competence.
