Acronym:
IY-ASD
Brief Summary:
Early intervention for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder ASD particularly with parent involvement is beneficial for both children and their families However few interventions have been rigorously tested which explicitly address parent and family outcomes This study will test the effectiveness of The Incredible Years Parent Program for Autism Spectrum and Language Delays IY-ASD program for parents of children with ASD ages 2-8 in a community-based setting compared to a parent support program Circle of Parents The investigators will assess parent stress caregiver coping child behavior parenting practices of participants In addition the investigators will report on participants satisfaction with IY-ASD through parent interviews and satisfaction surveys
Detailed Description:
The Incredible Years refers to a suite of developmentally appropriate group-based interventions targeting parenting children and teachers IY-ASD is an adapted version of the Basic parent training program which uses a simple and low-cost format to develop skills in problem-solving coping stress management and communication The Incredible Years has decades of evidence pointing to improved levels of parent stress depression and coping skills as well as decreased negative child outcomes such as aggressive behavior in a broad array of diverse populations The program has been used extensively in the United Kingdom and Sweden Cost-effectiveness analyses have been performed with positive results in England The Incredible Years is based on attachment theory and social learning theoryThe goals of The Incredible Years parent intervention - communication problem-solving and stress management - are critically important to this population Parents with children with special needs tend to interact with teachers healthcare professionals and other adults more often than parents whose children do not have disabilities Thus building a strong foundation early to begin to problem solve communicate effectively and navigate healthcare and special education systems can reduce some stress the parent might experience in the future
The Incredible Years Parent Program for Autism Spectrum and Language Delays IY-ASD IY-ASD will be delivered over a 14-week period The current research aims to rigorously test IY-ASD in a community-based setting using a randomized design The investigators will compare IY-ASD to a usual practice a parent support group currently offered at Onslow County Partnership for Children Circle of Parents Circle of Parents is an open group which is led by a parent leader These groups generally meet weekly or biweekly Participants are encouraged to share resources and other support both during groups and between meetings Free childcare and meals are also offered during Circle of Parents meetings Using a randomized design the investigators will evaluate a parent intervention for caregivers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder ASD compared to a parent support group Over a four-year period the investigators seek to
1 Recruit approximately 105 parents and other primary caregivers to participate in either an IY-ASD or Circle of Parents group
2 Measure parenting stress parent coping mechanisms parenting practices and child behavior of participants and their children at baseline and posttest pre- and post-intervention
3 Compare outcomes of parents completing IY-ASD versus those in Circle of Parents group
4 Evaluate changes in parent and child outcomes from post-intervention to 3-month follow-up in IY-ASD participants and
5 Elicit information from IY-ASD participants to assess satisfaction and improve future use of IY-ASD in the ASD population
