Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Intervention group
Participants in this group were administered the pre-intervention introductory information form, The Parental Self-Efficacy Scale, the Zarit Care Burden Scale, the Perceived Stress Scale and the Family Empowerment Scale. Then, a group empowerment training program consisting of four sessions in total was applied to the participants. Two motivational interview sessions were conducted with each participant in the intervention group 10 days after the empowerment training program. One month after the motivational interview sessions were completed, post-test data were collected.
Parental empowerment program
The empowerment program consisted of two parts: the empowerment training program for parents and motivational interviews.
The empowerment training program was prepared to enable parents to carry out the care process more effectively in areas where parents have difficulties caring for their children with autism. Within the scope of the empowerment training program, parents were trained on the importance of play and communication, problems and management in the field of nutrition, sleep problems and management, safety and protection from accidents, and problems and management in the field of self-care.
Ten days after the empowerment training program, two face-to-face motivational interviews were conducted with each participant in the intervention group. Each participant had a one-week break between the first and second motivational interviews. Each motivational interview session lasted approximately 25-30 minutes.
Control group
No intervention was applied to the control group. The data collection tools applied to the intervention group in the pre-test and post-test were also applied to the control group.
