Video therapy brings autism help home

NCT ID NCT04042337

Summary

This study tested whether parents of young children with autism could learn a proven therapy technique through weekly video calls with a trained therapist. Over 12 weeks, researchers taught parents how to use Pivotal Response Treatment at home to help improve their child's communication skills. The goal was to see if this remote training approach could help families who can't access in-person autism services due to distance or long waitlists.
