Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
The Hong Kong version of Westmead Feeling Program 2
The treatment group will receive the WFP2-HK program which consists of 15 school-based training sessions over 18 weeks. Three parent- and teacher-training workshops will be delivered separately and preceding each Child Module by coaches or advisors. A booster session will be conducted for the treatment group after 5 months upon completion of the training programs.
The Hong Kong version of Westmead Feeling Program 2
Westmead Feelings Program (WFP) is a manualized emotion-based learning intervention for children on the autism spectrum. WFP teaches autistic children how to understand their own and other's emotions, solve problems, and regulate emotions through the implementation of transactional support. In doing so, parents and teachers are also trained to develop their emotional coaching skills to support children in everyday settings. Its impact on improving emotional competence in primary school-aged children on the autism spectrum has been established in 41 mainstream schools in Australia.
Waitlist Group
While the treatment group is receiving training, the waitlist group will be waiting. After 18 weeks of waiting and when the treatment group completes the training. The waitlist group will receive the same training program as that of the treatment group, but no booster session will be provided to the waitlist group.
