 Overview
Dr. Smith and colleagues conduct studies on the efficacy of interventions for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). One area of interest is early intensive behavioral intervention, which begins at the age of four years or younger and involves the provision of 20 or more hours per week of service. Other current studies involve comparing outcomes of interventions such as different models of intervention for establishing communication in nonverbal children with autism, approaches to helping parents become effective teachers for their children, and medications and behavioral interventions for children with ASD who also have challenging behaviors.
