Early Socioemotional Intervention for Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder in Hong Kong and Mainland China

This study aims to develop a culturally-sensitive parent-training intervention to enhance socioemotional functioning of young children (aged 3-6) with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in Mainland China. The investigators will conduct randomized controlled trials to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of this program in a pilot study and then a large-scale community-based study in Shenzhen, China, to examine the generalizability of the treatment outcomes of this intervention for Chinese children with ASD.
