This paper presents an overview of 5 meta-analyses of early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) for young children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) published in 2009 and 2010. There were many differences between meta-analyses, leading to different estimates of effect and overall conclusions. The weighted mean effect sizes across meta-analyses for IQ and adaptive behavior ranged from g = .38-1.19 and g = .30-1.09, respectively. Four of five meta-analyses concluded EIBI was an effective intervention strategy for many children with ASDs. A discussion highlighting potential confounds and limitations of the meta-analyses leading to these discrepancies and conclusions about the efficacy of EIBI as an intervention for young children with ASDs are provided.
本文综述了 2009 年和 2010 年发表的 5 项关于早期密集行为干预（EIBI）对自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）幼儿的荟萃分析。荟萃分析之间存在许多差异，导致效应和总体结论的估计值不同。荟萃分析中智商和适应行为的加权平均效应大小范围分别为 g=0.38-1.19 和 g=0.30-1.09。五项荟萃分析中有四项得出结论，EIBI 是许多 ASD 儿童的有效干预策略。讨论强调了导致这些差异的荟萃分析的潜在混杂因素和局限性，以及 EIBI 作为 ASD 幼儿干预措施的疗效。
