Evaluation of a Novel Intervention for Infants At Risk for Neurodevelopmental Disorders
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Parents and Infants Engaged for Autism Spectrum Disorder and Neurodevelopmental Disorders. Completed, enrolled 72 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study entails a "proof of concept" evaluation of a novel intervention, Parents and Infants Engaged (PIE), for prodromal infants at-risk for neurodevelopmental disorders (NDs). The objectives of the current study are to examine whether the PIE intervention (a) transforms parent-infant transactions over time as intended, thereby facilitating increases in the time infants spend in joint engagement with their parents, and (b) is associated with improved social-communication functioning and positive changes in indices of autonomic self-regulation in infants at-risk for NDs.
