    A global perspective: Quantitative changes in training participants’ knowledge of autism across selected settings within the United States and Singapore
    (2023-11) Neal, Tiffany; Nazarloo, Shawn; Deodhar, Aditi; Somasundaram, Manasi; Gandhi, Siddhi; Swiezy, Naomi
    The present study aimed to assess and compare the effectiveness of the HANDS in Autism™ Model training curriculum, framework and process specific to changes in autism knowledge via the Autism Knowledge Survey-Revised (AKS-R; HANDS in Autism®, 2005). Additional exploration using the AKS-R, sought to explore differences in the global, Singapore training cohorts specific to their participation in either single-week or multi-week training formats. Results from this preliminary exploration demonstrated statistically significant improvement in autism knowledge across both countries. These findings provide initial evidence as to both the effectiveness and transportability of the HANDS in Autism® Model across participants and countries. While findings are specific to improved autism knowledge, the emerging potential of the Hands in Autism® Model as a comprehensive treatment model will be further discussed.

    Assessing the impact of HANDS Intensive Trainings across diverse demographics using Autism Knowledge Survey-Revised (AKS-R) scores
    (2024-05) Bondugula, Rithwik; Neal, Tiffany; Gottipati, Mounika; Swiezy, Naomi
    The research aimed to assess the impact of HANDS Intensive Trainings across diverse demographics using Autism Knowledge Survey-Revised (AKS-R) scores. The study involved educators from various counties, focusing on enhancing their understanding and preparedness in handling individuals with ASD. Data was collected before and after the training sessions to measure improvements in teaching efficacy. The findings indicated a significant increase in educator efficacy, particularly among younger educators (ages 21-40), with a balanced benefit observed across genders. The analysis also revealed variable impacts across different counties, suggesting the influence of external factors. The study highlighted the importance of professional and ethical competencies, collaborative planning, and the use of data management tools like REDCap and Excel in improving educational outcomes for individuals with ASD.
