This pilot research investigated the effects of a community-based organized football program on behavioral, social and communicative outcomes in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. In a non-randomized design, 19 children completed the football program and were compared pre- and post-intervention with 21 children who received no comparable intervention (ages 5-12 years). Caregiver-report using the child behavior checklist indicated a significant decrease in total, internalizing, DSM-oriented anxiety and social problems for children who participated in the program, with no change in the comparison group. There were no group differences in socialization and communication scores on the Vineland Adaptive Behavior scale. Results provide preliminary evidence in support of the program, justifying the need for further, more rigorous trials in this area.
本初步研究调查了基于社区的有组织足球项目对自闭症谱系障碍儿童行为、社交和沟通结果的影响。在非随机设计中，19 名儿童完成了足球项目，并在干预前后与未接受类似干预的 21 名儿童（年龄 5-12 岁）进行了比较。使用儿童行为检查表的照顾者报告表明，参加该项目的儿童的总体、内化、以 DSM 为导向的焦虑和社会问题显著减少，而对照组没有变化。在社会交往和沟通方面，Vineland 适应行为量表的评分在两组之间没有差异。研究结果初步证明了该项目的有效性，证明了在该领域进一步开展更严格试验的必要性。
