Abstract:
Children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at increased risk of persistent language and literacy difficulties. The intervention used a coaching model and comprised a training session, four home visits, and four follow-up phone calls. Parents completed a shared book reading video with their child prior to the intervention, immediately post-intervention and eight weeks after the intervention was completed. Compared to the control group, there was a significant increase in children’s verbal participation. These effects disappeared when the significant increase in reading duration following the intervention was taken into account. The results highlight the feasibility of a parent-implemented shared book reading intervention for encouraging early language skills in children.
