Enhancing Motivation to Complete Daily Living Skills Among Teens and Young Adults with Autism
Contact
Description
We recently developed a therapy to help teens and young adults with a diagnosis of autism increase their motivation to do daily living skills (i.e., cooking, cleaning, budgeting).
For this study, we are recruiting individuals who have a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder and know how to complete certain daily living skills (ex. know how to do laundry) but struggle with the motivation to do those skills (ex. rarely ever do laundry). This study is not currently recruiting individuals with a diagnosis of intellectual disability or recruiting individuals who want to learn how to do new daily living skills (i.e., learn how to cook).
