Objective: The prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has been increasing globally. However, longitudinal studies on the long-term effects of early intervention (EI) remain limited, with inconsistent findings. The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) is a comprehensive EI approach that integrates behavioral, developmental, and relationship-based principles. Chiang et al. (2023) previously conducted a short-term, low-intensity individual ESDM intervention. This study followed the same cohort to assess their developmental outcomes four years later and examine the long-term effects of ESDM. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design. Participants had received either individual ESDM intervention (ESDM group) or general early intervention (community intervention group) between the ages of 2 and 4. Data were collected at three previous time points: T1 (pre-intervention), T2 (post-intervention), and T3 (6 months post-intervention). At T4 (four years post-intervention), a follow-up assessment was conducted on both groups (n = 17 per group, mean chronological age = 99.05 and 99.30 months, respectively). Primary outcome measures included cognitive ability, language ability, and adaptive behavior, while secondary outcome measures included symptom severity, challenging behavior, and hours of special education services received. Results: Across all primary and secondary outcome indicators, no significant group-by-time interaction was observed between the ESDM intervention group and the community intervention group from T3 to T4. Both groups showed improvement in verbal abilities over time, while autism symptom severity significantly increased in both groups. Regarding the use of special education services, children in the ESDM group received significantly more hours of special education services at T4 compared to those in the community group. Conclusion: At T4, the ESDM and community intervention groups exhibited similar trends in language development and symptom severity, with no statistically significant differences between groups. However, the ESDM group received significantly more hours of special education services, suggesting that the type of early intervention may influence patterns of subsequent service utilization.參考文獻 林姿伶、姜忠信、吳欣治(2016)。自閉症類群兒童綜合性早期療育的療效研究:文獻回顧。中華心理衛生學刊,29(1),1-46。 林清山(1981)。心理與教育統計學。臺灣東華書局股份有限公司。 姜忠信、劉瓊瑛、朱思穎(譯)(2014)。丹佛早療模式:促進自閉症幼兒的語言、學習及參與能力。台北:洪葉文化事業有限公司。(S.

However, longitudinal studies on the long-term effects of early intervention (EI) remain limited, with inconsistent findings. The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) is a comprehensive EI approach that integrates behavioral, developmental, and relationship-based principles. Chiang et al. (2023) previously conducted a short-term, low-intensity individual ESDM intervention. This study followed the same cohort to assess their developmental outcomes four years later and examine the long-term effects of ESDM. Methods: This study employed a quasi-experimental design. Participants had received either individual ESDM intervention (ESDM group) or general early intervention (community intervention group) between the ages of 2 and 4. Data were collected at three previous time points: T1 (pre-intervention), T2 (post-intervention), and T3 (6 months post-intervention). At T4 (four years post-intervention), a follow-up assessment was conducted on both groups (n = 17 per group, mean chronological age = 99.05 and 99.30 months, respectively). Primary outcome measures included cognitive ability, language ability, and adaptive behavior, while secondary outcome measures included symptom severity, challenging behavior, and hours of special education services received. Results: Across all primary and secondary outcome indicators, no significant group-by-time interaction was observed between the ESDM intervention group and the community intervention group from T3 to T4. Both groups showed improvement in verbal abilities over time, while autism symptom severity significantly increased in both groups. Regarding the use of special education services, children in the ESDM group received significantly more hours of special education services at T4 compared to those in the community group. Conclusion: At T4, the ESDM and community intervention groups exhibited similar trends in language development and symptom severity, with no statistically significant differences between groups. However, the ESDM group received significantly more hours of special education services, suggesting that the type of early intervention may influence patterns of subsequent service utilization. en_US dc.description.tableofcontents 第一章 緒論 1 第一節 研究背景及目的 1 第二節 文獻回顧 4 壹、自然且具發展原則的行為療育法(Naturalistic developmental behavioral interventions, NDBIs)4 貳、丹佛早療模式(ESDM)7 參、ASD早期介入之縱貫研究 18 第三節 研究問題與假設 27 第二章 研究方法 29 第一節 研究對象 29 第二節 研究測量 38 壹、認知與語言能力 38 貳、適應行為 40 參、症狀嚴重度 41 肆、挑戰行為 42 伍、特殊教育服務時數 43 陸、同儕關係 44 第三節 ESDM個別介入方案與一般社區介入 45 第四節 資料分析 46 第三章 研究結果 47 第一節 初級療效指標分析 47 壹、認知能力 47 貳、語言能力 48 參、適應行為 48 第二節 次級療效指標分析 51 壹、症狀嚴重度 51 貳、挑戰行為 51 參、特殊教育服務時數 53 肆、同儕關係 53 第四章 討論 57 第一節 療效指標結果解釋 57 壹、初級療效指標與研究假設一 57 貳、次級療效指標與研究假設二 57 參、T4新增指標與研究假設三 60 肆、與其他文獻比較 61 第二節 研究貢獻與限制 64 參考文獻 66 附錄一 自閉症資源使用問卷-學齡版(Resource Use Questionnaire for Family of School-aged children, RUQ-S)80 zh_TW dc.format.extent 1651968 bytes - dc.format.mimetype application/pdf - dc.source.uri (資料來源) http://thesis.lib.nccu.edu.tw/record/#G0110752022 en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) 自閉症 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 丹佛早療模式 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 早期介入 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 學齡期 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) 縱貫研究 zh_TW dc.subject (關鍵詞) Autism Spectrum Disorder en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Early Start Denver Model en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Early Intervention en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) School-age en_US dc.subject (關鍵詞) Longitudinal Study en_US dc.title (題名) 台灣自閉症類群障礙兒童丹佛早療模式之縱貫研究:學齡期兒童療效追蹤 zh_TW dc.title (題名) A Follow-up Study on the Implementation of Early Start Denver Model for School-Age Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Taiwan: Children Outcomes en_US dc.type (資料類型) thesis en_US dc.relation.reference (參考文獻) 林姿伶、姜忠信、吳欣治(2016)。自閉症類群兒童綜合性早期療育的療效研究:文獻回顧。中華心理衛生學刊,29(1),1-46。 林清山(1981)。心理與教育統計學。臺灣東華書局股份有限公司。 姜忠信、劉瓊瑛、朱思穎(譯)(2014)。丹佛早療模式:促進自閉症幼兒的語言、學習及參與能力。台北:洪葉文化事業有限公司。(S.
