“…For parents of ASD children, the majority of studies have explored children's characteristics (mainly core features of ASD) as a determinant of parenting stress or parental coping strategies (e.g., Firth & Dryer, 2013;Peters-Scheffer, Didden, & Korzilius, 2012 Van Leeuwen, & De Clercq, 2011, Nader-Grosbois & Mazzone, 2014Rivers & Stoneman, 2008). These significant differences in factors of personality may cause variations in parental behaviours, and notably ERSBs.…”

Eisenberg, Cumberland and Spinrad (1998) defined Emotion-Related Socialization Behaviours (ERSBs) as parents' behaviours that tend to promote their children's emotional and social abilities. They distinguish three types of ERSBs in parents: their reactions to their children's emotions, their emotion-related conversations and their emotional expressiveness. The two present studies compare these reactions (Study 1) and conversations (Study 2) in parents of children with an Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and parents of typically developing (TD) children. Moreover, by applying several linear regression analyses by the stepwise method, they examined the extent to which such ERSBs vary according to individual characteristics in children and parents. Study 1 included 39 mothers and 31 fathers of ASD children and 39 mothers and 31 fathers of TD children. In Study 2, 29 mothers and 15 fathers of ASD children and 29 mothers and 15 fathers of TD children participated. For the two studies, children were matched for gender and global developmental age. Parents' ERSBs, their openness to emotional processes and children's personality were assessed by means of questionnaires. Children's developmental age was assessed using the Differential Scales of Intellectual Efficiency. For each study, we considered mothers and fathers independently in our analyses, with a view to adapt parenting programmes for each parent if necessary. Results revealed that there are few differences between the two groups of parents in their ERSBs. Regression analyses showed that the variance in ERSBs in parents of ASD children was explained partially by their openness to emotional processes and by their children's personality. Our results suggest that, although parents of ASD children are good "socializers of emotions", intervention programs should take account of the fact that their ERSBs vary according to their own emotional abilities and their children's personality. These studies emphasize the importance of identifying which in-

“…The impact of the baseline functioning of the children on the intervention effects, the consequences for the children and their families (e.g., distress), and the possibility of implementing the method considering its intensity and extensiveness have also been discussed (23,27). In addition, questions have been raised about the costs associated with the EIBI method, although these may need to be weighed against lowered future costs if the method is effective (130).…”

Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is currently not curable, but it may be malleable to varying degrees in response to different interventions to improve outcomes. Objective: We conducted a systematic review of interventions aimed at ameliorating social communication impairments in patients with ASD. This study was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (no. CRD42013003780). Methods: We focused on the ASD interventions that are frequently applied in Swedish clincial practice to address ASD. To ensure stakeholder involvement, we also conducted two surveys with three major Swedish ASD interest organizations to assess perceived research priorities for ASD treatment. With the use of this rationale for selection, Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention [EIBI], Treatment and Education of Autistic and Related Communication Handicapped Children [TEACCH], social skills training groups, and interventions that involved significant others were reviewed. A bibliographic search was conducted via five databases: Medline, PubMed, PsycInfo, CINAHL, and ERIC. Identified articles were screened for relevance by two independent reviewers, who also assessed the risk of bias in randomized controlled trials using systematic checklists. Results: A total of 7264 citations were identified as being published before February 2013, and 109 studies (18 of EIBI, 18 of social skills training, 4 of TEACCH, and 69 of interventions involving significant others) were included in the analysis. The included studies provided some support for the positive effects of each of the interventions; this is especially true if the most recently published research (March 2013 through August 2015) is considered, and a crude updated search for relevant randomized controlled trials was performed. The interventions that involve the significant others of individuals with ASD form a heterogenous area of treatment strategies that require subcategorization for future review. Conclusions: These findings provide preliminary support for treatments that are commonly used in clinical practice for the treatment of ASD in Sweden. However, larger and more rigorously designed and controlled studies are still needed before definitive conclusions regarding their effects can be made.

“…1 Earlier diagnosis would alleviate prolonged concerns of many families and expedite opportunities to benefit from specialized interventions, 37,38 thereby reducing costs to families and society. 39 Parental reports, analyses of home videos and, more recently, prospective studies of infants at increased risk of ASD have identified numerous red flags that distinguish toddlers with ASD from those with typical development or other developmental delays (Box 4). These signs were recently analyzed in a comprehensive literature review.…”
