“…Parental perceptions of developmental disabilities, their child's needs, and EI services influenced EI receipt, party modified by culture (Birkin et al, 2008; Chauhan et al, 2017; Evans et al, 2016; Shyu et al, 2010). For example, parents’ attributions of the causes of ASD influenced EI decisions in a Taiwan study (Shyu et al, 2010).…”

“…The influence of the number of children in the household on EI provision or receipt varied modified by the type of EI and informal support available (Chadwick et al, 2002; Chauhan et al, 2017). For example, multi‐generational households enhanced access for some parents of children with developmental delays in India, as they received additional childcare support, but for others reduced their control over EI decisions (Chauhan et al, 2017). Parental time constraints were barriers to EI receipt, modified by family composition, employment status, work schedules, caring responsibilities, household duties and other time commitments (Evans et al, 2016; Marshall et al, 2015).…”

“…A poor match between the content of EI programmes or support and family factors was a barrier, whereas a good match was a facilitator (Chauhan et al, 2017; Dababnah et al, 2019; McConachie et al, 2001). As previously described, parents generally sought services that aligned with their perceptions of developmental disabilities or need (Chauhan et al, 2017; Shyu et al, 2010).…”

Access to early intervention (EI) has been identified as a priority for global research in developmental disability (Collins et al., 2017;Tomlinson et al., 2014). As a term, developmental disability refers to several developmental conditions but especially developmental delay, intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) 1 .The onset of developmental disabilities takes place during early development and lasts throughout an individual's lifetime (Patel & Merrick, 2011). Whilst the individual needs of children with developmental disabilities are unique, general delays in cognitive and adaptive skills are present by definition (American Psychiatric Association, 2013;Carulla et al., 2011;McDonald et al., 2006). A range of other adverse outcomes are associated with developmental disabilities, such as poorer mental health, poorer physical health and social inequalities (Emerson, 2003;Emerson & Hatton, 2007;Gurney et al., 2006;Vasilopoulou & Nisbet, 2016). For example, an increased risk for behaviour problems is present in children with developmental disabilities as young as 3-5 years old (Totsika et al., 2011), and this increased risk persists into adolescence and adulthood (Gray 1 While autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is predominately used in the current paper in line with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5, other autism diagnostic labels (Asperger syndrome, autism, Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified, Rett syndrome, autistic traits) are used to describe studies completed in the context prior to the widespread use of ASD as an all-encompassing autism diagnosis in instances where autism diagnostic label is pertinent to the findings.

This study examined predictors of access to early support amongst families of 0-6-year-old children with suspected or diagnosed developmental disabilities in the United Kingdom. Using survey data from 673 families, multiple regression models were fitted for three outcomes: intervention access, access to early support sources, and unmet need for early support sources. Developmental disability diagnosis and caregiver educational level were associated with intervention access and early support access. Early support access was also associated with child physical health, adaptive skills, caregiver ethnicity, informal support, and statutory statement of special educational needs. Unmet need for early support was associated with economic deprivation, the number of household caregivers, and informal support. Multiple factors influence access to early support. Key implications include enhancing processes for formal identification of need, addressing socioeconomic disparities (e.g., reducing inequalities, increasing funding for services), and providing more accessible services (e.g., coordinating support across services, flexible service provision).
