| Summary: | Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of biomedical treatments on the symptoms and satisfaction of families in autism spectrum disorder. The present research method was a semi-experimental pre-test-post-test type with a control group. The statistical population of this research was the autistic children of the autism group in virtual space, from which thirty autistic children aged four to twelve with autism, fifteen in the experimental group and fifteen in the control group were randomly assigned. Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC) was used to collect research data. The program was conducted in three months by parents and the supervision of the researcher, and the research data was analyzed using the covariance analysis method. The results of covariance analysis showed that biomedical treatments in reducing the symptoms in the Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC) have caused families to be satisfied. It seems that with the continuation of this method and reaching higher stages of treatment, more changes can be made in reducing the symptoms of autism and following it, reducing the challenges of the families, leading to the families' satisfaction with the treatment.Keywords: biomedical treatments, family satisfaction, autism spectrum disorder |
