AI Summary
  • Culturally and linguistically adapted PRRFCT Match, a caregiver-mediated naturalistic developmental intervention package, tailored for Spanish-speaking families of children with autism.
  • Single-case experimental multiple baseline design with four transborder Spanish-speaking families, each matched with Spanish-speaking coaches for intervention delivery.
  • Behavioural change analysed via visual analysis, non-overlap, and standard mean difference; results indicate promise and provide recommendations for cultural adaptations.

ABSTRACT

Using a surface adaptation, this single-case experimental study evaluated Promoting Reciprocal Relationships with Flexibility, Coaching, and Teaching (PRRFCT Match) for Spanish-speaking families whose children have an autism diagnosis. PRRFCT Match is a caregiver-mediated, naturalistic developmental intervention package that has been previously tested in 2 single-case experiments involving a total of 16 families. This iteration culturally and linguistically adapted the intervention package for use with four transborder, Spanish-speaking families, who were matched with Spanish-speaking coaches. The Spanish-speaking caregivers represent families whose home language or preferred language is Spanish. Using a multiple baseline design, data from caregiver and child behavior change were analyzed via visual analysis, non-overlap, and standard mean difference. This study shows promise for surface adaptation of the PRRFCT Match intervention package. Recommendations and considerations for cultural and linguistic adaptations of interventions that meet the needs of individual families are discussed.
