Study type | Interventional |
This study uses a mixed methods design to understand the effectiveness of using taekwondo as
an intervention for children with ASD and its effect on social interaction skills and
everyday life. Qualitative research emphasizes that meaning can be explained and interpreted
only by those who experience it. A pretest-posttest design will be used to describe what
occurs after the introduction of the taekwondo intervention and understand the changes that
occur after exposure. Collecting information through the lived experiences and observations
from the parents will be collated with the pre and post results of the children participants'
social interaction skills.
Qualitative data will be collected through pre and post semi-structured interviews with the
parents to understand their observations of their child before and after completing the
taekwondo program. Interviews will also be conducted with the child to understand their
perspectives on physical activity participation. Interview questions will also explore how
the effectiveness of the program has impacted the children's engagement in daily activities.
Quantitative research will be collected through pre and post results from the Autism Social
Skills Profile-2 ([ASSP] assessment that will be completed by the parents. The ASSP-2
provides a comprehensive measure of social functioning for children and adolescents with ASD.

Primary | Subject response to taekwondo | Autism Social Skills Profile-2 (ASSP-2) will be administered at baseline prior to taekwondo instruction and then administered again at week 7. The ASSP-2 has 49 items and each are rated on a 4-point Likert scale with a minimum score of 1 representing never and a maximum score 4 representing very often for each item. This is a composite measurement. The scale ranges from a total raw score of 49 to a maximum of 196. There are three subscales: 20 social/emotional reciprocity (SER) items, 11 structured play activity (SPA) items, and 11 detrimental social behaviors (DSB) items. One component skill is measured as both an SER and SPA subscale. Standard scores have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. The higher the scores for each section means that the child does not have difficulties with social skills for that subscale. The lower the scores shows a deficit in each area. | Change between baseline and week 7. |
