Evaluation of The Efficacy of a Seven Week Public School Curriculum Based DIR/Floortime Parent Training Program for Parents of Children on The Autism Spectrum

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of a seven week DIR/Floortime parent training on (1) the quality of the parent-child dyad and (2) the child's developmental level. The results of this study provide support for the notion that short term parent training significantly increases the quality of the parent/child interaction and also significantly increases the developmental level of the child with Autism Spectrum Disorder. These significant results were evidenced on the first two levels and the total scores on both the Functional Emotional Assessment Scale - Child (FEAS) and the Neuro-Developmental Disorders of Relating and Communication Functional Emotional Developmental Levels (NDRC-FEDL). / Educational Psychology
