dc.description.abstract | The objective of this research was to test the feasibility of an online-based parent-mediated intervention focused on increasing physical activity levels among children with ASD, with the focus on the qualitative analysis of post-intervention interviews. For this purpose, phenomenological methodology was applied along with semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis. The components of the intervention included: informational and physical activity promotion posts, motivational messages, goal setting, monitoring of activity and discussion with other parents. Analysis of the interviews yielded 7 themes: overall success of components, lack of time, benefits of parent communication, practical advice that can be applied right away, older children or parents participation, “we learn the needs in the course of classes”, more assistance with goal setting. Findings suggest that parents were largely satisfied with the intervention, reporting success of most of the components, for example, increased awareness, improvements of the ASD symptoms, convenience of the online format and others. Major barrier reported by parents was the lack of time, while some parents reported struggling with achieveing weekly goals. | en_US |
