Description

İsmail Seçer and five co-authors published a case study in 2024 on parent-child interaction therapy for children whose autism traits fall below the diagnostic line. Such children still struggle with adaptation and behavior, and they need early help much like diagnosed peers. The therapy coaches parents live, through play, to strengthen the bond and manage difficult behavior.

Three children with subthreshold traits and their parents went through about a year of the therapy. Reports afterward described better adaptive and interaction skills, less school refusal, and lower stress and caregiving burden for the parents. The authors present the approach as a functional option for this in-between group, while calling for larger studies to confirm what three families suggest.
