Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Social differences characteristic of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities are evident in early childhood and are associated with later difficulties. Unfortunately, there is a paucity of evidence-based interventions explicitly targeting social skills development for young children, few actively integrate parents and caregivers, and even fewer have remote models. The importance of providing accessible, tailored services for families in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, prompted the creation of a parent-mediated telehealth version of Program for the Education and Enrichment of Relational Skills (PEERS®) for Preschoolers (P4P), a pre-existing, evidence-based social skills intervention for children 4-6 years focused on making and keeping friends.
UNASSIGNED: This methodological paper documents the implementation, feasibility, and satisfaction of a novel telehealth group-based delivery of P4P.
UNASSIGNED: Qualitative results indicate acceptable feasibility and satisfaction. Additionally, following completion there was an increase in parental confidence in social coaching and increased use of child social skills.
UNASSIGNED: Future work will evaluate quantitative outcomes and comparisons between delivery methods (e.g., telehealth vs. in-person).
摘要:
UNASSIGNED:自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)和其他发育障碍的社会差异特征在儿童早期很明显,并与后来的困难有关。不幸的是,缺乏明确针对幼儿社交技能发展的循证干预措施,很少有人积极整合父母和照顾者,甚至更少的人拥有远程模型。提供无障碍服务的重要性,在COVID-19大流行后为家庭提供量身定制的服务,促使为学龄前儿童(P4P)创建了父母介导的远程健康版本的关系技能教育和丰富计划(PEERS®),一个预先存在的,4-6岁儿童的循证社交技能干预侧重于结交和交朋友。
UNASSIGNED:本方法文件记录了实现,可行性,以及基于P4P的新型远程医疗团体交付的满意度。
未经评估:定性结果表明可接受的可行性和满意度。此外,完成后,父母对社会指导的信心增加,并增加了对儿童社交技能的使用。
UNASSIGNED:未来的工作将评估定量结果和交付方法之间的比较(例如,远程医疗vs.亲自)。
