The key endpoint will be change in daily living skills on primary and secondary outcome measures at the end of treatment.","Individuals with high functioning autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are not developing the skills necessary to successfully transition from adolescence to college, employment, and independent living.\n\nDaily living skills (DLS) have been linked to positive adult outcome in individuals with ASD.\n\nDespite the importance of daily living skills to adult outcome, adolescents with high functioning ASD have impaired daily living skills.\n\nA complex set of environmental, individual, and family factors likely affect the ability of adolescents with high functioning ASD to acquire critical daily living skills.\n\nThere are currently no evidence-based daily living skills intervention packages for adolescents with high functioning ASD that would prepare them for independence in adulthood.\n\nA total of 192 autistic adolescents between the ages of 15-21 who are in their last 2 years of high school will be randomized to the STRW-T group (n=96) or the PEERS-T control group (n=96). Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, post-treatment, 6-month follow-up, and 6-month post-high school graduation assessments. Adolescents will meet the following inclusion criteria: (1) a diagnosis of ASD; (2) enrolled in 11th or 12th grade; (3) Intelligence Quotient of greater than or equal to 70; and (4) a DLS deficit on the Vineland-3 interview as reported by caregivers.\n\nAim 1: Examine the efficacy of STRW-T on DLS compared to a control group (PEERS-T). Hypothesis 1: STRW-T youth will have greater gains on the primary DLS assessment (VABS-3) compared to PEERS-T youth at post-treatment; Hypothesis 2: STRW-T youth will have greater gains on secondary DLS assessments (Adaptive Behavior Assessment System, 3rd Edition, DLS-Goal Attainment Scale, daily phone diaries) compared to PEERS-T at post-treatment.\n\nAim 2: Evaluate whether the improvement on DLS outcomes by STRW-T are sustained beyond the intervention period. Hypothesis 3: The impact of STRW-T on DLS gains (as assessed by primary and secondary DLS assessments) will be sustained at 6-months post-treatment.\n\nAim 3: Examine the effects of the STRW-T intervention on outcomes in college, employment, and Quality of Life after high school graduation.

Evidence-based strategies are utilized to facilitate acquisition, mastery, and generalization of specific DLS at home and in the community. During dyad sessions, teens will work on DLS in their home environment and will receive coaching and instruction from both their caregiver and the therapist. During caregiver group sessions, the therapist will discuss the content of dyad sessions and engage in problem solving with each caregiver (e.g., using and fading rewards, implementing strategies to increase success, teen motivation\u002Fbuy-in).",[34],"Surviving and Thriving in the Real World - Telehealth (STRW-T)",{"type":30,"name":36,"description":37,"armGroupLabels":38},"PEERS-T","PEERS-T is a 15-week intervention with concurrent caregiver and teen group telehealth sessions that target social skills (e.g., building friendships, conversing, dealing with bullying).
