| Résumé : |
Online Parent Training in Early Behavioral Intervention (OPT-In-Early) is a self-directed resource for caregivers of autistic children. Sixty-three parent-child dyads from three states in were randomized to the OPT-In-Early or treatment as usual group. Parents in both groups completed baseline and post-treatment visits, which were targeted for 4?months apart but allowed to go up to 6?months. Compared to parents in the treatment as usual group, parents randomized to OPT-In-Early learned more evidence-based intervention principles from baseline to post-treatment and were rated by observers blind to group and time as increasing their use of these strategies during brief semi-structured interactions with their children. Parent participation in OPT-In-Early did not significantly influence children?s social communication as coded from one observation session. Results suggest that parents acquired knowledge and skills in intervention techniques from OPT-In-Early. Longer trials may be needed for gains in child behavior.Lay abstractEarly intervention can help children learn language and improve social communication. However, many barriers, including the expense of services and an insufficient number of providers, prohibit families from accessing services when their children are young. We developed a comprehensive online program for caregivers of autistic children. The program, Online Parent Training in Early Behavioral Intervention (OPT-In-Early), uses text and video demonstrations to teach caregivers effective methods for improving their children?s language, social, and adaptive skills (e.g. using utensils, toilet training), and reducing their children?s disruptive behavior. Sixty-three parents from three states participated in the study. Half of the parents received access to the OPT-In-Early program. After 4?months, parents who had access to the OPT-In-Early program learned more effective intervention strategies, and started using these strategies during interactions with their children, than parents who did not receive access to the program. Parent participation in OPT-In-Early did not significantly influence children?s social communication compared to children whose parents did not have access to OPT-In-Early. A longer duration of parents using learned intervention skills with their children may be needed for children?s social communication skills to improve. |
