Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Current study try to find out whether social interaction treatment is effective for ASD children. ASD children will be divided into three groups, social interaction treatment group, neuronal cognition treatment and routine treatment group. Based on excited recognition training treatment effect on the core symptom of ADHD by tablet computer, the investigators propose that tablet computer social interaction treatment may induce a significant improvement in ameliorating the social disorder of ASD.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Appropriate and effective treatment coupled with home training can help ASD children restore the ability of language, behavior and learning. However, there is no suitable and effective behavior intervention for home training yet. Current study try a 3 months' randomized double-blinded clinical trial to find out whether tablet computer social interaction treatment at home is effective for ASD children. 90 3-6 years old ASD children will be included and divided into three groups, social interaction treatment group, neuronal cognition treatment and routine treatment group respectively. During the treatment days, children in social interaction treatment group will have 30min social interaction each day for 3 months. Children in neuronal cognition treatment group will experienced neural cognition training 30min each day for 3 months. Children in routine treatment group will keep the same initial treatment. All ASD children are followed up closely. The primary observed indicator is the score of Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) at the inclusion, one month and 3 month after treatment to evaluate the effect of tablet computer social interaction treatment on ASD children.
