Examining Treatment Outcomes Across Contexts: How Do Child Baseline Characteristics Impact Measurement of Treatment Response? Academic Article uri icon

Overview

abstract

  • The evaluation of the overlap between the ADOS BOSCC and Standard BOSCC as well as the exploration of child characteristics that may predict change are important steps in consolidating data-driven definitions of "improvement". Participants were seen between 2 and 5 times with Standard BOSCC and ADOS BOSCC observations over the course of early intervention trials (Grzadzinski et al. in J Autism Dev Disord 46:2464, 2016; Kim et al. in Autism 23:5, 2019). Results showed consistency between the Standard BOSCC and ADOS BOSCC, highlighting the utility of both as metrics of change and treatment outcome across contexts. Baseline characteristics may play a role in the tailoring of early intervention to maximize treatment outcome and may offer guidance when determining which outcome measures to use.
