目的：为了解中国地区儿童保健工作者对自闭症的认知和知识水平，采用横断面问卷调查的方法对调查对象的自闭症知识和知晓率进行调查。[方法]对西南地区中国地区的159名幼儿保健工作者进行问卷调查，对问卷的一般知识、症状、筛查与诊断、干预与治疗等5个部分进行描述性分析。使用单变量分析评估参与者的基本人口学特征对问卷分数的影响。采用多因素分析方法分析受试者的基本人口学特征与问卷得分之间的关系。结果：不到15%的参与者知道ASD是一种发育、先天性和遗传性疾病。很少有参与者知道这些症状包括语言障碍(38.4%)和社交功能障碍(29.6%)。少数参与者知道诊断标准(22.6%)和早期筛查年龄(14.5%)。共有23.9%的参与者同意没有有效的药物来治疗ASD，6.3%的人同意ASD是无法治愈的。≥-10从业年限(OR=0.3249，95%CI：0.1080-0.9189)是导致问卷得分较高的主要因素。结论：大多数参与者对ASD的认识和知识水平相对较低，特别是在一般知识以及干预和治疗知识方面。工作10年以上是提高自闭症意识和知识水平的重要预测因素。ASD相关培训和知识传播对ASD的早期诊断和干预至关重要。儿童保健工作者对自闭症的认识和知识需要提高，以帮助建立公众对自闭症的认识。
Objective: To evaluate the levels of awareness and knowledge of ASD among child health care workers in China, we conducted a cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study to assess the participants' awareness and knowledge of ASD. Methods: A total of 159 child health care workers from Southwest China participated in the survey and filled out the questionnaire.Descriptive analysis was conducted on the five parts of the questionnaire, including general knowledge, symptomology, screening and diagnosis, and intervention and treatment. Univariate analysis was used to assess impacts of the participants' basic demographic characteristics on the questionnaire scores. Multivariate analysis was used to analyze association of the participants' basic demographic characteristics and the questionnaire scores. Results: Less than 15% of the participants knew that ASD is a developmental, congenital and genetic disorder. Few participants knew that the symptoms include language disorder (38.4%) and social dysfunction (29.6%). A minority of the participants knew the diagnostic criteria (22.6%) and the age for early screening (14.5%). A total of 23.9% of the participants agreed that there are no effective drugs to treat ASD, and 6.3% agreed that ASD is incurable. A number of years in practice of ≥10 (OR = 0.3249, 95% CI: 0.1080–0.9189) was the main factor related to a high questionnaire score. Conclusions: Most participants had relatively low levels of awareness and knowledge of ASD, especially in terms of general knowledge as well as knowledge of intervention and treatment. Working for more than 10 years was a significant predictor of higher levels of awareness and knowledge of ASD. ASD-related training and knowledge dissemination are crucial for the early diagnosis and intervention of ASD. Child health care workers' awareness and knowledge of ASD needs to be improved to help build public awareness about ASD.
