Summary

This study tests a 16-week parent-assisted social skills program for 60 preschoolers with autism. Children learn through puppet shows, role-playing, and structured play, while parents get coaching. The goal is to improve social skills like making friends and playing with peers.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
PEERS® for Preschoolers social skills training (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this program could offer a practical way to help young children with autism build better social skills and make friends.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 children, so results may not apply to all kids. The program requires significant parent involvement, which may not work for every family.
