Effects of Parent-Mediated Intervention on Restricted and Repetitive Behaviors in Children With ASD

The program consists of eight weekly 2-hour group sessions, with each group consisting of 8 to 10 families. During the sessions, supervisors present the strategies to the parents and explain how to integrate them into their interactions with their children. Sample videos are shown to illustrate the strategies, and group discussions allow parents to discuss their application. In the second half of each session, the parents' recorded videos are watched, and supervisors provide feedback on whether the strategies were accurately implemented. At the end of each session, supervisors address any questions the parents may have.
