Autism Spectrum Disorders Clinical Trial
Official title:
Emotion Regulation in Preschoolers With Autism and Their Parents
In the proposed study, the investigators would like to investigate the emotion regulation
(ER) strategies children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) demonstrate, and the influence
parents have on their children's ER. More specifically, the investigators would like to
examine what are the ER mechanisms that parents use, what mechanisms of self regulation
children with autism internalize, and how parents support and improve the ER capabilities of
their child with ASD. These will be studied in a behavioral level, using micro-analysis of
parent-child interaction, and in a physiological level, using indexes of stress control and
affiliation. In addition, in order for parental ER support to be effective, it is important
to consider more innate neuro-developmental difficulties children with ASD demonstrate that
strongly affect their ability to regulate themselves. These include sensory regulation
difficulties, temperament, attention disorders and poor executive functioning.
Hypotheses:
1. ER strategies used by children with ASD will be more poorly developed and less
effective, compared to those of children in the control groups.
2. Difficult temperament and sensory regulation difficulties will hamper ER in children
with ASD.
3. ER strategies of parents of children with ASD will be more poorly developed and less
effective than those of parents in the control groups.
4. Good parental self-ER and parental attunement to the child will be predictive of
improved ER in children with ASD, and in parent-child synchrony, both in the behavioral
and in the physiological levels.
