  • Title: Comprehensive synthesis of early intensive behavioral interventions for young children with autism based on the UCLA young autism project model.
    Author: Reichow B, Wolery M.
    Journal: J Autism Dev Disord; 2009 Jan; 39(1):23-41. PubMed ID: 18535894.
    Abstract:
    A 3-part comprehensive synthesis of the early intensive behavioral intervention (EIBI) for young children with autism based on the University of California at Los Angeles Young Autism Project method (Lovaas in Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 55, 3-9, 1987) is presented. The three components of the synthesis were: (a) descriptive analyses, (b) effect size analyses, and (c) a meta-analysis. The findings suggest EIBI is an effective treatment, on average, for children with autism. The conditions under which this finding applies and the limitations and cautions that must be taken when interpreting the results are discussed within the contextual findings of the moderator analyses conducted in the meta-analysis.
