Annotated Bibliography: Parent Training in ASD
ثبت نشده
چکیده
DISCUSS: Group Intensive Family Training (GIFT) used a preschool-like dynamic, where parents and their children with autism came in to a 3 hour per day, 5 days per week program to learn skills to increase their child’s motivation. Such advances were made using clear instructions, successive conditional discriminations, and self-management skills. Seventy-two parent-child dyads entered the program, between the ages of 2.1 and 5.8 years. Participants had staggered entry into the program so that parents who had been there longer could assist newcomers. Upon entry, an informal assessment was done to allow parents to prioritize skill acquisition for the development of a treatment protocol. Sessions included one-on-one training, as well as various groupings of the children into peer groups to work on peer communication. Parents were encouraged to employ their skills at home for a minimum of five hours per week, a sample of which was videotaped and reviewed for constructive feedback. Using the Mullen Scales of Early Learning and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, results showed an average developmental gain of 8.2 and 5.7 months (respectively). All findings were statistically significant.
