Titre : A pilot randomised controlled trial of a group based social skills intervention for adults with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ruth ASHMAN, Auteur ; Kirsty BANKS, Auteur ; Ruth C. M. PHILIP, Auteur ; Robert WALLEY, Auteur ; Andrew C. STANFIELD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.67-75 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders Social skills training Adults Randomised controlled trial Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : AbstractBackground Social skills training is commonly used for children and adolescents with ASD. There are few studies considering its efficacy in adults and those that exist usually compare it to standard treatment, as opposed to controlling for non-specific improvements that may result from receiving an intervention. We conducted a pilot study to investigate whether social skills training is more effective than non-specific support for adults with ASD. Methods 19 adults with ASD were randomised to either social skills training or non-specific social interaction groups for 16 weeks. The Reading the Mind in the Eyes and Reading the Mind in the Voice Tasks were used to assess social cognition while the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS-2) and the Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale (WFIRS-S) were used to measure real-life change pre- and post-treatment. Results Taken together, both groups improved across the course of the study on the ‘Eyes’ task (p = 0.049), SRS-2 (p = 0.03) and WFIRS-S (p = 0.053). However, there were no significant differences between the groups. There was some trend-level evidence that the social skills group improved more on the tests of social cognition (p ? 0.1 for group x time interaction). This was not the case for the SRS-2 (p = 0.25) and for the WFIRS-S there was a trend for the social interaction group to show greater improvements (p = 0.07). Conclusions This study did not show clear evidence of benefit from social skills training compared to facilitated social interaction, although larger studies are required to draw firm conclusions about efficacy.
