Theory of Mind
• What if I don’t know that you have mind separate and different from my own?
• What if I don’t realize that you are a unique individual in your own right?
• What if I don’t realize that you have my interests at heart and want to offer me the benefits of your own experiences and thinking and ability?
• What if I don’t know that you experience things differently from me?

Minnesota Work Adjustment Theory
• Work skills matched with Job Requirements = Satisfactoriness
• Work Values matched with Job Reinforcers = Satisfaction
• Satisfaction + Satisfactoriness = Job Tenure
![Page 13: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Relation to Autism
• Too often we focus on satisfactoriness• We need to assess what a worker with
autism values• We cannot assume what an individual
values• From experience, job retention is
significantly increased when a worker with autism’s values are addressed and met on the job

Social Interaction On The Job
• Temple Grandin is an individual with autism who has her Ph.D. in Animal Science
• She defined the following Rule System to guide her social interactions and behaviors, especially on the job
![Page 19: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Social Interaction (cont.)
• This system is helpful to assist other individuals with autism in understanding social rules on the job
• There are four categories in this system:
![Page 20: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Really Bad Things
• Defined as things that are considered extremely bad by a culture and are most time illegal
• Examples:– Stealing someone’s work– Hitting a co-worker
![Page 21: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Courtesy Rules
• These things are important because they make others around you at work feel comfortable
• Examples:– Cleaning up the lunch area after you finish
lunch– Letting a co-worker in a rush make copies
before you
![Page 22: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Illegal But Not Bad
• These things technically violate a law, but are not considered bad by the culture
• Examples:– Speeding when you are late for work– “Stealing” a paper clip from a co-worker’s
desk
![Page 23: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Sins of the System
• These are the unwritten rules of the workplace that will lead to termination. Some of these rules may vary from work place to work place. This is a category that is difficult for workers with autism
• Examples:– Not asking a supervisor 6 times when it will be time to
return from break– Not discussing sexual issues with a co-worker

Helping Our Client’s Understanding

![Page 36: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Social Stories
Good social stories use 3 types of sentences:
1. Descriptive
2. Perspective
3. Directive
![Page 37: Intro to Social Coaching James Emmett APSE Webinar](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032516/56649c715503460f949226c4/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
0-1 Directive
_______________
2-5 Descriptive,
Perspective or
Affirmative Sentences
Social Story RatioThe basic social story ratio defines the proportion of sentences used in a story. This ratio is maintained no matter what the length or focus of the story. This ratio ensures the DESCRIPTIVE quality of the story. Some social stories do not contain directive sentences but are entirely descriptive. Following this ratio results in a social story that has a patient and reassuring quality and can be referred to time and time again as a source of social information for the student with ASD
