2. Development intervention: The development intervention of ASD aims to help children form positive and meaningful interpersonal relationships with others. The key point is to teach children social and communication skills through structured scenes in daily life, and also to cultivate children's life skills.
3. Combination intervention: Some methods combine the elements of behavioral intervention and developmental intervention, and also absorb and adopt the new ideas of ASD and typical child development.
4. Family-based intervention: Emphasize the importance of family participation to children's development needs. Specifically, parents should not only lead intervention decision-making, but also play a key role in intervention implementation.
5. Treatment-based intervention: Treatment-based ASD intervention provides specific treatment for some defects. Commonly used treatment interventions are:
Speech therapy (ST) promotes children's communication and social skills.
Occupational therapy (OT) promotes children's planned life skills.
Treatment-based interventions are usually implemented together with other intervention plans. For example:
Functional communication training (FCT)
sign language
Image exchange communication system
6. Medical intervention: From time to time, I will hear that there is a new "special treatment" for ASD. So far, there is no medical evidence to prove that ASD can be cured. On the contrary, most drugs are only used to improve, not remove, the accompanying symptoms of ASD.
