Résumé

Malgré les difficultés psychosociales fréquentes chez les jeunes adultes présentant des troubles du spectre de l'autisme (TSA), il existe peu ou pas d'interventions fondées sur des données probantes visant les compétences sociales pour cette population. En utilisant un plan d'essai contrôlé randomisé (ECR), la présente étude a testé l'efficacité d'une intervention fondée sur des données probantes, assistée par les aidants, visant les compétences sociales et connue sous le nom de PEERS for Young Adults, auprès de jeunes adultes à haut niveau de fonctionnement présentant un TSA (âgés de 18 à 23 ans), au moyen de mesures d'autoévaluation et d'évaluation par les aidants. Les résultats ont révélé que les jeunes adultes traités ont signalé significativement moins de solitude et une amélioration de leurs connaissances des compétences sociales, tandis que les aidants ont signalé des améliorations significatives des compétences sociales globales des jeunes adultes, de leur réactivité sociale, de leur empathie et de la fréquence des rencontres. Les résultats appuient l'efficacité de l'utilisation de cette intervention manuelle, assistée par les aidants, auprès de jeunes adultes présentant un TSA.

Despite the psychosocial difficulties common among young adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), little to no evidence-based social skills interventions exist for this population. Using a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design, the current study tested the effectiveness of an evidence-based, caregiver-assisted social skills intervention known as PEERS for Young Adults with high-functioning young adults with ASD (ages 18-23) using self- and caregiver-report measures. Results revealed that treated young adults reported significantly less loneliness and improved social skills knowledge, while caregivers reported significant improvements in young adults' overall social skills, social responsiveness, empathy, and frequency of get-togethers. Results support the effectiveness of using this caregiver-assisted, manualized intervention for young adults with ASD.
