There has an increasing number of published trials on psychosocial intervention programmes
for pre-school children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).In this study,
we categorize interventions for ASD as behavioural, social-communication focused, and
multimodal developmental based and compared these three models and investigate the
strengths and weaknesses of each type of intervention and to identify the approaches that
contribute to a successful outcome for children with autism.
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis. As a results,There was no statistically significant difference in the effects on autism general symptoms between the social-communication-focused model and the multimodal developmental model (p = 0.83). The results suggest that there is evidence
of an effect on `reciprocity of social interaction towards others' and `parental synchrony' (本研究では、自閉スペクトラム症の早期療育のプログラムによる効果の違いを検証することを目的とし、メタアナリシス手法を用いて、3つのモデルの効果の差を検証した。その結果、3つのモデルの間には、自閉スペクトラム症重症度・発達指数・受容性言語・表出性言語などのアウトカムに差は見られなかった。しかし、プログラム全体の統合では、対人相互交流と親の児への応答性に効果が認められた。)
