Abstract

Families of children with neurodevelopmental disabilities (NDDs) face specific challenges including limited social support, financial burdens, and elevated risks of psychological distress, notably anxiety and depression. These challenges extend to the well-being of both parents and children. On the positive side, contemporary early behavioral interventions have demonstrated their effectiveness in developing positive outcomes in children with developmental disabilities. This review examines the effectiveness of behavioral interventions, focusing on the role of parental involvement in treatment outcomes for children with DD, including autism spectrum disorder. Review analyzes studies on behavioral parent training (BPT) that emphasize extending parental involvement, considering implementing relationship-building and self-help strategies to mitigate parental stress. Additionally, the review addresses the parallel challenges faced by direct-care staff, highlighting the necessity for integrated training approaches that cater to both parental and staff needs to maintain treatment integrity. This integrative approach is crucial for fostering a supportive environment, enhancing treatment efficacy, and improving outcomes for children with NDD. Findings suggest that multi-component training programs, addressing self-help skills, stress reduction, and parenting skills, are beneficial for both parents and staff, promoting effective collaboration and treatment adherence. The review advocates for continued research and application of combined training methods, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), to support families and caregivers of children with NDD."
