Summary

This study tested a 6-week mobile app designed to support Chinese parents of children with autism. The app provided knowledge, skills, and mindfulness training. 852 parents took part to see if the app could reduce anxiety, depression, and stress while boosting parenting confidence. The goal was to empower parents, not to treat the child's autism.
