Emotion Awareness and Skills Enhancement (EASE) Program: A Clinical Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating EASE and Supportive Therapy for Autism Spectrum Disorder. Completed, enrolled 113 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
This project will address impaired emotion regulation in adolescents with ASD (autism spectrum disorder). There are no evidence-based interventions to improve emotion regulation (ER) in this population, yet poor emotion regulation often leads to maladaptive behavior and substantially impedes capacity to learn and function across all life settings, and reduce their quality of life and that of their families. The primary objective of this study is to formally evaluate efficacy of EASE via a sufficiently powered, two-site randomized-controlled trial (RCT).
