| Summary: | Over the past 15 years there has been a dramatic increase in the incidence of autism. In 2014 the
American Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network reported estimated
prevalence rates for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to be 1 in 68. This group of children and
their families have important service needs. The considerable amount of time and cost involved in
providing appropriate interventions, suggest the parent training and involvement as a particularly
appealing intervention option. The involvement of parents in implementing intervention strategies
designed to help their autistic children has long been accepted as helpful. Different kinds of
training methods available to parents have provided positive intervention outcomes. The present
article is a case study on a mother of a child with autism implemented intervention. This case study
shows which are the areas of success and of negative outcomes for the mother implemented
intervention and then compares the same areas with the results achieved by the therapist. The goal
is to modestly come with new suggestions to be included in parent training methods. |
