D'Agostino, Sophia R.; Dueñas, Ana D.; Bravo, Alice; Tyson, Kelsie; Straiton, Diondra; Salvatore, Giovanna L.; Pacia, Cressida; Pellecchia, Melanie – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Interventions (NDBIs) have a strong and growing evidence base. Yet, NDBIs are not implemented on a wide scale within early intervention programs for children on the autism spectrum. Potential reasons for the slow adoption of NDBIs likely stem from the differing theoretical orientations of behavioral and…

Judy Reaven; Katherine Pickard; Allison T. Meyer; Lisa Hayutin; Caitlin Middleton; Nuri M. Reyes; Tanea Tanda; Aubyn Stahmer; Audrey Blakeley-Smith; Richard E. Boles – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Autistic youth frequently experience interfering anxiety, and schools may be an ideal setting to deliver mental health care. A type 1 hybrid-effectiveness, cluster randomized trial was used to examine the effectiveness of school-based Facing Your Fears compared to usual care. Change in provider cognitive behavior therapy knowledge and treatment…

Defining the central components of an intervention is critical for balancing fidelity with flexible implementation in both research settings and community practice. Implementation scientists distinguish an intervention's essential components (thought to cause clinical change) and adaptable periphery (recommended, but not necessary). While…

Lee, Chung Eun; Shogren, Karrie A.; Segal, Jordan; Pezzimenti, Florencia; Aleman-Tovar, Janeth; Taylor, Julie Lounds – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Given the wide heterogeneity in the autism population, one challenge for intervention studies is to identify outcome measures that have similar meaning across individuals. This is particularly pronounced in intervention studies of adults with autism spectrum disorder, where outcomes such as employment, independence, or community living are common…

Hampton, Lauren H.; Rodriguez, Elizabeth M. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Understanding the impact of preemptive interventions on development for those with a high likelihood for autism is a critical step in building a transdiagnostic model of optimized intervention. The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to examine the impact of preemptive autism interventions on parent outcomes and child…

Pickard, Katherine; Burrell, T. Lindsey; Brasher, Susan; Buckley, Derianne; Gillespie, Scott; Sharp, William; Scahill, Lawrence – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Moderate feeding problems affect many children with autism spectrum disorder and often co-occur with disruptive mealtime behaviors. Although parent-mediated interventions have shown promise to support feeding problems, research has primarily occurred within randomized controlled trials when delivered by highly trained clinicians in specialty…

Pickard, Katherine; Meyer, Allison; Reyes, Nuri; Tanda, Tanea; Reaven, Judy – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Cognitive behavioral therapy for youth with autism spectrum disorder and anxiety is effective, but disparities exist in accessing these programs. Training school providers to deliver cognitive behavioral therapy may help to address these disparities. However, little is known about how cognitive behavioral therapy programs are implemented by…

Shire, Stephanie Y.; Shih, Wendy; Barriault, Terri; Kasari, Connie – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Although a growing number of caregiver-mediated intervention models for families with children with autism are being examined in efficacy trials, few have been transferred to community implementation. Furthermore, little testing has explored implementation strategies to support caregivers' strategy use with their children. In partnership with a…

Odom, Samuel L.; Sam, Ann M.; Tomaszewski, Brianne – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
The purpose of this study was to examine influences on the implementation of a school-based comprehensive program for autistic children. Following the conceptual framework suggested by the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment (EPIS) model, variables from the outer context, inner context, and also that were part of the…

Recent efforts have focused on developing and evaluating early intervention for toddlers with probable or emerging autism spectrum disorder. Parent-mediated approaches have gained traction, with mounting evidence of efficacy, but a research-to-practice gap exists, and community effectiveness remains to be firmly established. We report outcomes of…

Dawson-Squibb, John-Joe; Davids, Eugene L.; Harrison, Ashley J.; Molony, Maggie A.; de Vries, Petrus J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Empowering families of children with autism spectrum disorder through education and training is best practice. A wide range of Parent Education and Training programmes are delivered around the globe, but there is limited knowledge about the characteristics of these programmes, or about the research methods and outcomes used to evaluate them,…

Lake, Johanna K.; Tablon Modica, Paula; Chan, Victoria; Weiss, Jonathan A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Cognitive behavioral therapy is a widely studied and commonly used psychosocial intervention for treating emotional problems in individuals with autism. To date, most studies of cognitive behavioral therapy and autism have focused on "efficacy." "Effectiveness" trials, by contrast, measure whether an intervention produces…

Pickard, Katherine; Hendrix, Nicole; Guerra, Karen; Brane, Natalie; Islam, Nailah – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
There is growing research aimed at translating parent-mediated interventions into Part C Early Intervention systems to examine the effectiveness and reach of these models. Although research to date suggests that Early Intervention providers deliver parent-mediated intervention near fidelity, current fidelity reporting practices make delivery…

Penney, Ashley; Schwartz, Ilene – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
Imitation is an important early social communicative skill that is often impaired in young children with autism. Reciprocal imitation training is an easy-to-implement intervention that targets social imitation and can be taught to parents or other caregivers to implement at home and in the community. In this study, parents of children with autism…
