ENACT (ENvironmental enrichment for infants; parenting with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy): a randomised controlled trial of an innovative intervention for infants at risk of autism spectrum disorder
Overview
This paper outlines the protocol for a randomized controlled trial evaluating ENACT, an online intervention combining environmental enrichment with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for parents of infants at risk of autism spectrum disorder. The study aims to recruit 66 mothers to compare the intervention against care-as-usual, assessing outcomes such as parent-infant interaction, parental mental health, and infant development over twelve months.
