Pivotal Response Treatment (PRT) Telemedicine

Overview

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the application of a modified version of PRT designed specifically as a parent-training model via telemedicine, with the goal of increasing access to empirically validated care. The project will feature an 18-week trial of parent training PRT via telemedicine in 12 cognitively able 3- to 6-year-old children with ASD. Intervention will focus on enhancing the following developmental skills: expressive and receptive language, play, and social interaction. Outcome measures will address changes in the aforementioned domains during structured observation and standardized assessment.
