PDA USA: The Podcast!

Decoding Gestalt Language Processing with Iris Wong

Brook and Amy go on a journey with Iris Wong (SLP, @eftoolkit on socials) to better understand Gestalt Processing and how it impacts not only language, but how some people process information. A high ratio of PDA (pathological demand avoidance) people communicate in phrases and statements (known as Gestalts) that might confuse those who process in a linear fashion. The goal of this podcast was to explain what Gestalt processing looks like, and  help classrooms and families learn from those who use it.
