What this trial studies

This study evaluates the effectiveness of an E-Learning parental coaching program for parents of children aged 2 to 4 years diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It compares the impact of this E-Learning approach against standard parental coaching and no coaching at all. The study focuses on three key areas: child development, parental competencies, and parent-child interaction. Participants will be divided into three groups to assess the differences in outcomes based on the type of coaching received.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are parents of young children aged 2 to 4 years with a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder who speak French.

Not a fit: Patients who may not benefit include those with known genetic syndromes, sensory deficits, epilepsy, or lack of internet access.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this program could provide parents with effective tools to support their children's development and improve family dynamics.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with parental coaching interventions, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
