We conducted a longitudinal study of 30 preschool children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) to evaluate the potential benefits of the Treatment and Education of Autistic and related Communication Handicapped Children (TEACCH). Fifteen children following a low intensity TEACCH program were assessed four times for autism severity, adaptive functioning, language skills, maladaptive behaviors and parental stress and compared with a control group of 15 children following a non-specific approach. Findings suggest that a low intensity home and school TEACCH program may provide benefits for children with ASD by reducing autistic symptoms and maladaptive behaviors. Furthermore, a decrease in parental stress indicates that parents' involvement in the rehabilitation program is a crucial factor and contributes greatly to treatment efficacy.
我们对30名患有自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的学龄前儿童进行了一项纵向研究，以评估自闭症及相关沟通障碍儿童治疗与教育（TEACCH）的潜在益处。对15名遵循低强度TEACCH计划的儿童进行了四次自闭症严重程度、适应性功能、语言技能、不良行为和父母压力的评估，并与15名采用非特定方法的对照组儿童进行了比较。研究结果表明，低强度的家庭和学校TEACCH计划可能通过减少自闭症症状和不良行为，为患有ASD的儿童带来益处。此外，父母压力的降低表明，父母参与康复计划是一个关键因素，对治疗效果有很大贡献。
