Official title
A Hybrid Effectiveness-implementation Trial of a School Based Executive Function Treatment for Transition Age Autistic Youth
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will test the effectiveness of a school-based cognitive behavioral executive function (EF) intervention, Unstuck \& On Target High School (UOT:HS), for transition-age youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). UOT:HS was designed to be embedded in high schools and delivered by school staff to improve generalization of skills, increase access to mental health care, and fill a gap in evidence-based approaches to support postsecondary transition. UOT:HS targets flexibility and planning skills and focuses on key functions needed for adult success across 25, 1-hour lessons. School staff will be trained to deliver UOT:HS, study staff will provide ongoing check-ins, and parents will be offered home extensions for each lesson and two trainings to generalize skills to the home environment. Behavioral and parent-report data will be collected prior to intervention, post-intervention, and at 4-to-6-month follow-up.
