About

Due to its complexity and variability, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) requires multidisciplinary and multidimensional interventions. SUPER (in Italian: Sistema Unitario in una Piattaforma Riabilitativa ed Educativa) is an Italian digital platform, implemented to facilitate collaboration between families, health services, and schools and to promote personalized intervention for children with ASD. The research protocol, aimed to test SUPER's feasibility and usability, foresees the enrollment of 12 ASD children in the Experimental Group (EG) and 12 ASD children for the Control Group. All families, teachers, and clinicians will perform usual rehabilitative and educative interventions, but the EG will use SUPER, in addition to ordinary programs. The feasibility and acceptability of SUPER will be assessed through usability scales and questionnaires realized ad hoc for the purpose. At baseline and established endpoints, ASD patients will be evaluated with different assessment tools.
