Summary

In order to support the development of preschool children, joint attention training with activities incorporated in their natural routines can support the achievement of occupational therapy goals. This study explores the adjunctive benefit of a joint attention-based occupational therapy program offered in addition to the usual special education program (USEP) compared to USEP alone.

The present study was designed as a randomized controlled study, including pre-post testing. The Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ), Autism Behaviour Checklist (ABC), and A Motor-Free Visual Perception Test 4 (MVPT-4) were implemented to measure the participants' conditions before and after the intervention.
