A Virtual Resiliency Intervention for Parents of Children with Autism: A Randomized Pilot Trial
Open accessAbstract
Parents of children with Autism experience high levels of stress. Resiliency is the ability to cope and adapt when faced with stressful events. This randomized, waitlist controlled pilot trial examines the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an adapted virtual mind-body group intervention for parents of children with ASD. The intervention was feasible and acceptable. The immediate treatment group showed no difference in distress and greater improvement in resiliency and stress reactivity/coping relative to the delayed treatment group, (M difference 5.78; p = .038 and M difference 7.78; p = .001 respectively). Findings showed promising feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy for parents of children with ASD.

Multicomponent interventions combining elements like mindfulness and psychological flexibility have improved parents' mental health through synergistic effects.
“Our results are corroborated by evidence indicating that integrated psychological interventions with multicomponent-such as mindfulness and psychological flexibility-effectively improved parents' mental health by utilizing synergies among these components (Kuhlthau et al., 2020;Schwartzman et al., 2022).”

The Methods (Waitlist Controlled Pilot study; page not provided) describe an intervention combining mind–body practices, cognitive-behavioral skills, and positive psychology. The Results/Discussion report improved resiliency and coping among parents of children with autism, with promising improvement in depression/anxiety, but no between-group difference in distress. The paper does not identify psychological flexibility as a component or show that synergies among components caused the improvements. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
