Ce
tutoriel en ligne a aidé les parents d'enfants avec un diagnostic de TSA à
utiliser des stratégies éprouvées pour améliorer la participation de
leur enfant à la routine quotidienne à la maison. Les
parents qui ont utilisé le didacticiel ont signalé moins de stress
parental, se sentaient mieux à propos de leurs compétences parentales et
ont signalé de meilleures interactions sociales de l'enfant par rapport
aux parents qui n'ont pas utilisé le tutoriel. Ce tutoriel peut être particulièrement utile pour les familles qui ont
un accès limité aux services, car il peut être réalisé à domicile.

Abstract
Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
(ASD) often experience difficulty participating in everyday home
routines, such as bed time or bath time. This randomized controlled
trial examined the efficacy of an interactive, web-based parenting
tutorial for improving children's engagement in daily routines (i.e.,
proximal outcomes) as well improving children's social communication and
parenting efficacy and stress (i.e., broad outcomes). Parents of
children with ASD between 18 and 60 months were randomly assigned to the
Tutorial group (n = 52) or the Control group (n = 52). All parents
completed questionnaires at baseline (T1), 1 month after T1 (T2;
post-tutorial completion), and 2 months after T1 (T3). Relative to the
Control group, parents in the Tutorial group reported significantly
higher use of evidence-based instructional strategies and higher levels
of child engagement during routines at T2 and T3. In addition, parents
in the Tutorial group reported significantly lower parenting stress and
higher parenting efficacy at T3, as well as higher ratings of child
social communication at T2 and T3, compared to the Control group.
Parents reported being highly satisfied with both the clinical content
and technical aspects of the tutorial. These improvements in both
proximal and broad parent-child outcomes suggest that this tutorial may
be a promising and accessible way for empowering some parents and
improving parent-child interactions. Autism Res 2018. © 2018 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
LAY SUMMARY:
This web-based tutorial helped parents of children with ASD use proven strategies to improve their child's participation in daily routines at home. Parents who used the tutorial reported less parenting stress, felt better about their parenting skills, and reported better child social interactions compared to parents who did not use the tutorial. This tutorial may be especially helpful for families who have limited access to services, as it can be completed at home.
