Several factors such as overlapping diagnoses can complicate this process and thus delay access to services. This study sought to identify meaningful clinical profiles, beyond diagnostic labels, in 194 children with NDDs referred to an assessment clinic. Cluster analyses were applied to eight selected behavioral and cognitive variables. Results suggested a cluster structure in which three homogenous groups differed significantly from one another: children who presented either (1) heterogeneous diagnoses and ambiguous profiles, (2) a clinical profile closely aligned to a classic presentation of ASD, and (3) emotional and behavioral challenges. These distinct profiles may have implications for assessment and clinical practices.

Cette étude montre les effets du P-ESDM sur les développement et comportements problématiques (CP) de l’enfant, sur la qualité de vie et le sentiment de compétence parental, selon un devis quasi-expérimental chez cinq familles. Les résultats les plus significatifs révèlent une hausse des CP chez les enfants pendant l’attente comparativement à une baisse, suite à l’obtention du programme P-ESDM. Le but de ce service innovant est de briser l’isolement des parents suite à l’obtention du diagnostic d’autisme chez leur enfant, de les former à intervenir auprès de leur enfant pendant la période d’attente de services et ainsi faciliter leur trajectoire de services dès leurs premières expériences.

Implementing a Positive Behavior Support Program for Young Children with Autism in Public Agencies: A Social Validity Evaluation from Parents, Practitioners, and Administrators / Mélina RIVARD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 56-3 (March 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 56-3 (March 2026) . - p.892-906 Titre : Implementing a Positive Behavior Support Program for Young Children with Autism in Public Agencies: A Social Validity Evaluation from Parents, Practitioners, and Administrators Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mélina RIVARD, Auteur ; Justine GRENIER-MARTIN, Auteur ; Catherine MELLO, Auteur ; Carlos SANCHEZ, Auteur ; Diane MORIN, Auteur ; Jacques FORGET, Auteur ; Christine LEFEBVRE, Auteur ; Zakaria MESTARI, Auteur ; Josquin DUCHAINE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.892-906 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Challenging behaviors in young children with autism and intellectual disabilities pose significant barriers to learning and inclusion. The Prevent-Teach-Reinforce for Young Children (PTR-YC) program is an evidence-based intervention that addresses these behaviors according to Positive Behavior Intervention Support principles. It is essential to assess the social validity of an intervention, when implemented into a public service system, to ensure sustainability and relevance to stakeholders. The present study aimed to document the social validity of PTR-YC from the point of view of three key informants: parents, practitioners, and administrators. Sixty-one participants were interviewed about their experience with PTR-YC (9 administrators, 31 practitioners, and 20 families). Semi-structured interviews assessed three fundamental components of social validity (Wolf, 1978): (a) social relevance of intervention goals, (b) social appropriateness of intervention procedures, and (c) social importance of intervention effects. Participants’ responses were subjected to thematic analysis. Intervention goals, namely family participation in the clinical process, strategies that focuses on prevention, and teaching alternative adaptive behaviors, were identified as relevant. Participants appreciated the program’s clear, structured, and turnkey clinical process, its parent-practitioner collaboration, and its consistency with practices already in place in the field. Positive instrumental outcomes (e.g., knowledge, competencies, self-efficacy) and ultimate outcomes (e.g., decrease in challenging behavior) of the intervention were reported on children, families, and practitioners. This study represents the first in-depth evaluation of the social validity of PTR-YC in specialized public services for autism and demonstrates its appropriateness for universal implementation in this sector.

Using Prevent Teach Reinforce for Young Children to Manage Challenging Behaviors in Public Specialized Early Intervention Services for Autism / Mélina RIVARD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-11 (November 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 51-11 (November 2021) . - p.3970-3988 Titre : Using Prevent Teach Reinforce for Young Children to Manage Challenging Behaviors in Public Specialized Early Intervention Services for Autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mélina RIVARD, Auteur ; Catherine MELLO, Auteur ; Zakaria MESTARI, Auteur ; Amélie TERROUX, Auteur ; Diane MORIN, Auteur ; Jacques FORGET, Auteur ; Christine LEFEBVRE, Auteur ; Malena ARGUMEDES, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3970-3988 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder/therapy  Autistic Disorder/therapy  Child, Preschool  Early Intervention, Educational  Humans  Parenting  Parents  Autism  Challenging behaviors  Early intervention  Positive behavior support Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This proof-of-concept study assessed the feasibility of implementing Prevent-Teach-Reinforce-for-Young-Children (PTR-YC) program to address challenging behaviors in children with autism within the context of public, specialized early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) services offered in community settings. Following a 2-day training and with brief weekly supervision meetings, children's EIBI educators acted as facilitators in 35 families' home environments. Small and moderate effect sizes were observed for children's behavioral outcomes and parenting stress. Recruitment and retention rates, implementation fidelity, as well as treatment acceptability from the perspective of participating parents and the organization attested to the feasibility and relevance of implementing and evaluating this program on a larger scale as part of a multi-center randomized controlled trial.
