STAR intervention group
community intervention group
The intervention strategies in STAR model are designed under the Naturalistic Developmental Behavioral Intervention (NDBI) framework which are implemented in natural settings targeting at improving social and communicational capabilities. The structure of the STAR model is with 2 modules and 16 sessions. Module I derives from our previous offline parent-tutoring courses with 8 intervention strategy topics combining academic instruction and real child demonstration but modified into on-line version. Module II is designed specifically for long-term consolidation of parents' intervention skills containing 8 biweekly sessions of distance coaching with parents practicing intervention with their children in real time at home.
This group will have community interventions parents can choose.
