DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant proposal is to outline the steps that Danya International, Inc. (Danya), will take to continue the development and evaluation of Supporting Teens with Autism on Relationships (STAR), formerly Relationship Education for Parents of Children with Autism (REPCA). STAR is an innovative, skill-building resource that adapts empirically based education approaches and interventions for parents of children and teens ages 10-18 who have high functioning autism (HFA) or Asperger syndrome (AS). A key component is a series of interactive DVDs for teens with HFA or AS to use on their own to engage and educate them on relationship skills and dating. Building on the results of the Phase I pilot study, Phase II will entail the following specific aims: Conduct formative research to inform the new interactive DVD content for teens with HFA/AS. Danya will solicit information through focus groups with professionals, parents of teens with HFA/AS, and teens with HFA/AS. In addition, we will conduct a needs assessment survey with our expert Advisory Panel. Complete STAR parent's curriculum content for the five remaining chapters and activities for the parent's guide, facilitator's guide, and filming of the parent video scenarios for each of these chapters. Develop and program content for the interactive DVDs. Conduct an extensive outcome evaluation with parents and adolescents with HFA/AS. This product will be relevant to the public health of the community for its potential to increase the knowledge of parents of children with HFA/AS about relationships in the context of HFA/AS; teach these parents how to communicate about relationships with their child; teach teens with HFA/AS concrete skills needed for developing relationships, as well as provide an opportunity for them to practice these skills; and supply advocates with a tool to help to educate parents of children with HFA/AS with whom they work about relationships and intimacy in the context of HFA/AS.

描述（由申请人提供）：本第二阶段小企业创新研究（SBIR）拨款提案的目的是概述丹亚国际有限公司（丹亚）将继续发展和评估支持自闭症青少年关系（STAR）的步骤，前身为自闭症儿童父母关系教育（REPCA）。STAR是一种创新的技能建设资源，适用于10-18岁患有高功能自闭症（HFA）或阿斯伯格综合症（AS）的儿童和青少年的父母，采用基于经验的教育方法和干预措施。一个关键的组成部分是一系列互动dvd，供患有HFA或AS的青少年自己使用，以参与和教育他们的关系技巧和约会。在第一阶段试点研究成果的基础上，第二阶段将包括以下具体目标：开展形成性研究，为患有HFA/AS的青少年提供新的交互式DVD内容。Danya将通过专业人士、HFA/AS青少年的父母以及HFA/AS青少年的焦点小组来收集信息。此外，我们会与我们的专家顾问小组进行需求评估调查。完成STAR其余五章的家长课程内容和家长指南、引导者指南的活动，并为每一章拍摄家长视频场景。为互动dvd开发和编程内容。对患有HFA/AS的父母和青少年进行广泛的结果评估。该产品将与社区公共卫生相关，因为它有可能增加患有HFA/AS儿童的父母对HFA/AS背景下关系的了解；教这些父母如何与孩子沟通关系；向患有HFA/AS的青少年传授发展人际关系所需的具体技能，并为他们提供实践这些技能的机会；并为倡导者提供一种工具，帮助教育与他们一起工作的HFA/AS儿童的父母，了解HFA/AS背景下的关系和亲密关系。
