The Efficiency of Comprehensive Treatment Options in Minimising Autism Symptoms among Children
Abstract: Background and Objectives: Starting rehabilitative programs for children with autism spectrum disorder at a young age (before they are five) is linked to improvements in autism symptoms. This research aimed to display how early family-centred therapy can improve the challenges and symptoms for children with autism spectrum disorder. Methodology: There was a clinical trial with a pretest and post-test design in this research, but it did not have a control group. A convenience sampling approach selected fifty persons to participate, among which were forty males and ten females with an average age of 3.2 ? 1.4 years. Efficacy was measured by using the Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) and the Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC) at the beginning and end of the study. An independent T-test was performed on the data in SPSS. Results: Results from the comparison of pretest and posttest scores showed a big difference in all the parameters of the test (communication, health, sensory and cognitive awareness, socialization) at a significance level of P below 0.001. Also, significant improvements were seen between the pre- and post-tests in speech, social and communication and overall performance (P
