Résumé

CONTEXTE : Une capacité limitée d'engagement social est une caractéristique centrale du trouble du spectre de l'autisme (TSA), souvent manifeste tôt dans le développement de l'enfant. Bien que ces compétences soient difficiles à entraîner, certains éléments indiquent que la participation active à la pratique musicale offre des occasions uniques d'interaction sociale entre les participants. La musicothérapie centrée sur la famille (FCMT) vise à soutenir l'engagement social entre l'enfant et le parent dans le cadre d'une pratique musicale active, mais l'ampleur des bénéfices apportés est inconnue. OBJECTIF : Cette étude a examiné les effets de la FCMT sur les capacités d'engagement social. MÉTHODES : Vingt-trois enfants (36-60 mois) présentant un TSA sévère ont reçu soit 16 semaines de FCMT en complément de leurs programmes d'intervention précoce (n = 12), soit uniquement leur programme d'intervention précoce (n = 11). L'évolution de l'engagement social a été mesurée au moyen d'évaluations standardisées rapportées par les parents, d'entretiens avec les parents et d'observations par le clinicien. RÉSULTATS : L'analyse en intention de traiter pour la Vineland Social Emotional Early Childhood Scale a indiqué un effet significatif en faveur de la FCMT. L'analyse qualitative thématique des entretiens avec les parents a montré que la relation parent-enfant s'est renforcée. CONCLUSION : La FCMT améliore les interactions sociales au domicile et dans la communauté ainsi que la relation parent-enfant, mais pas les compétences linguistiques ni la réactivité sociale générale. Cette étude apporte un soutien préliminaire à l'utilisation de la FCMT pour promouvoir l'engagement social chez les enfants présentant un TSA sévère.

BACKGROUND: Limited capacity for social engagement is a core feature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), often evident early in the child's development. While these skills are difficult to train, there is some evidence that active involvement in music-making provides unique opportunities for social interaction between participants. Family-centred music therapy (FCMT) endeavours to support social engagement between child and parent within active music-making, yet the extent of benefits provided is unknown. AIM: This study investigated the impacts of FCMT on social engagement abilities. METHODS: Twenty-three children (36-60 months) with severe ASD received either 16 weeks of FCMT in addition to their early intervention programmes (n = 12), or their early intervention programme only (n = 11). Change in social engagement was measured with standardized parent-report assessments, parent interviews and clinician observation. RESULTS: Intention-to-treat analysis for the Vineland Social Emotional Early Childhood Scale indicated a significant effect in favour of FCMT. Thematic qualitative analysis of the parent interviews showed that the parent-child relationship grew stronger. CONCLUSION: FCMT improves social interactions in the home and community and the parent-child relationship, but not language skills or general social responsiveness. This study provides preliminary support for the use of FCMT to promote social engagement in children with severe ASD.
