项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant proposal is to outline the steps that Danya International, Inc. (Danya), will take to continue the development and evaluation of Supporting Teens with Autism on Relationships (STAR), formerly Relationship Education for Parents of Children with Autism (REPCA). STAR is an innovative, skill-building resource that adapts empirically based education approaches and interventions for parents of children and teens ages 10-18 who have high functioning autism (HFA) or Asperger syndrome (AS). A key component is a series of interactive DVDs for teens with HFA or AS to use on their own to engage and educate them on relationship skills and dating. Building on the results of the Phase I pilot study, Phase II will entail the following specific aims: Conduct formative research to inform the new interactive DVD content for teens with HFA/AS. Danya will solicit information through focus groups with professionals, parents of teens with HFA/AS, and teens with HFA/AS. In addition, we will conduct a needs assessment survey with our expert Advisory Panel. Complete STAR parent's curriculum content for the five remaining chapters and activities for the parent's guide, facilitator's guide, and filming of the parent video scenarios for each of these chapters. Develop and program content for the interactive DVDs. Conduct an extensive outcome evaluation with parents and adolescents with HFA/AS. This product will be relevant to the public health of the community for its potential to increase the knowledge of parents of children with HFA/AS about relationships in the context of HFA/AS; teach these parents how to communicate about relationships with their child; teach teens with HFA/AS concrete skills needed for developing relationships, as well as provide an opportunity for them to practice these skills; and supply advocates with a tool to help to educate parents of children with HFA/AS with whom they work about relationships and intimacy in the context of HFA/AS.

描述（由申请人提供）：第二阶段小企业创新研究 (SBIR) 拨款提案的目的是概述 Danya International, Inc. (Danya) 将采取的步骤，以继续开发和评估支持自闭症青少年关系教育 (STAR)，原名自闭症儿童家长关系教育 (REPCA)。 STAR 是一种创新的技能培养资源，为患有高功能自闭症 (HFA) 或阿斯伯格综合症 (AS) 的 10-18 岁儿童和青少年的家长采用基于经验的教育方法和干预措施。一个关键组成部分是一系列互动 DVD，供患有 HFA 或 AS 的青少年自行使用，以吸引和教育他们人际关系技巧和约会。基于第一阶段试点研究的结果，第二阶段将实现以下具体目标：进行形成性研究，为患有 HFA/AS 的青少年提供新的交互式 DVD 内容。 Danya 将通过由专业人士、HFA/AS 青少年的家长以及 HFA/AS 青少年组成的焦点小组征求信息。此外，我们将与我们的专家顾问小组一起进行需求评估调查。完成剩余五个章节的 STAR 家长课程内容以及家长指南、辅导员指南的活动，并拍摄每个章节的家长视频场景。开发和编程交互式 DVD 的内容。对患有 HFA/AS 的家长和青少年进行广泛的结果评估。该产品将与社区的公共卫生相关，因为它有可能增加 HFA/AS 儿童的父母对 HFA/AS 背景下的关系的了解；教导这些父母如何与孩子沟通关系；向患有 HFA/AS 的青少年传授发展人际关系所需的具体技能，并为他们提供练习这些技能的机会；为倡导者提供一个工具，帮助教育患有 HFA/AS 的儿童的父母，让他们了解 HFA/AS 背景下的关系和亲密关系。
