Description détaillée
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that significantly affect emotional development, communication, and social interaction. Although conventional interventions target specific developmental domains, many children continue to experience challenges in functional emotional capacities and daily living skills.
Developmental, Individual-differences, Relationship-based (DIR)/Floortime™ is a relationship-based intervention that promotes emotional regulation, communication, social engagement, and higher-order thinking through child-led, developmentally appropriate interactions. This study investigates the effectiveness of integrating DIR/Floortime™ with standard therapeutic services.
This study uses a parallel-group randomized controlled design. Eligible children aged 4-12 years diagnosed with ASD are randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving DIR/Floortime™ plus standard therapies or a control group receiving standard therapies alone. Outcomes are measured before and after the intervention using the Functional Emotional Assessment Scale (FEAS) and the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS). The findings are expected to contribute evidence regarding the effectiveness of DIR/Floortime™ in improving functional emotional development and adaptive behavior among children with ASD and IDD.
