- Abstract
This exploratory study describes the experiences of 15 mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder in regards to the intensive behavioural intervention (IBI) services received in rehabilitation centres. The objective was to investigate mothers' experiences in regards to the IBI characteristics (program length, waiting period, intensity, earliness of iintervention, members of the response team and the context (supervision, intervention, site, complementary services) in which IBI was provided. To achieve this goal, semi structured interviews were held. Mothers' experiences showed variability in terms of services as well as differences between IBI programs offered in Quebec and the ones described in the literature. Particular attention should be paid to these discrepancies as they might profoundly affect success of intervention.
