Official Title: Comparative Efficacy of a Self-directed and Therapist-assisted Telehealth Parent Training Intervention for Children With ASD
Brief Summary: The specific objectives of this project are to conduct a randomized control trial to examine the effect of a novel, telehealth parent training intervention for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), ImPACT Online, on parent and child outcomes. The investigators will compare the benefits of the self-directed and therapist-assisted delivery formats, and examine moderators and mediators of treatment outcomes. The investigators anticipate that both the self-directed and therapist-assisted models of ImPACT Online will be effective methods for teaching parents to use evidence-based intervention strategies and for increasing parent self-efficacy compared to a web-based information control group. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups. One-third of participants will be in the therapist-assisted group; one-third will be in the self-directed group; and one-third will be in a web-based information control group.
