We investigated the effect of a live online educational program in 93 Dutch Youth and Family Center (YFC) physicians who were screening for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the general child population. The educational program raised the physicians' level of specific ASD knowledge and it remained higher at six months follow-up (p < .01). Their self-confidence in detecting ASD was also higher and maintained at follow-up (p < .01). The educational program had no effect on the physicians' stigmatizing attitudes toward mental illness nor on the number of potential ASD referrals in children of 4-6 years of age. In conclusion, the online educational program on early detection of ASD has a six month long effect on YFC physicians' level of ASD knowledge and self-confidence.
我们调查了一个在线教育项目对 93 名荷兰青年和家庭中心（YFC）医生的影响，这些医生正在对普通儿童群体进行自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的筛查。该教育项目提高了医生对特定 ASD 知识的了解程度，并且在六个月的随访中仍然保持较高水平（p<.01）。他们对检测 ASD 的自信心也有所提高，并在随访中保持（p<.01）。该教育项目对医生对精神疾病的污名化态度或对 4-6 岁儿童的潜在 ASD 转诊数量没有影响。总之，该 ASD 早期检测在线教育项目对 YFC 医生的 ASD 知识水平和自信心有六个月的影响。
