The impact of school absenteeism extends beyond academic achievement, affecting one's ability to participate in life successfully. In particular, children with difficulties in communication and interaction are at risk of developing school absences. This systematic review therefore focused on school absenteeism among children on the autism spectrum and examined the risk and influencing factors contributing to school absences. Eighteen studies were included, thirteen of which used a quantitative design, two of which were mixed-method studies, and three of which had a qualitative design. Different studies had varying definitions of school absenteeism and employed diverse study designs, prompting the need for a narrative synthesis. We evaluated the data regarding the factors of individual, parental, and school based on the KiTes bioecological systems framework for school attendance and absence by Melvin et al. (2019). We identified the majority of risks and influences in relation to the school factor and identified interacting factors contributing to school absenteeism in all factors. We recognised research gaps and provided guidance for further research.</p>","PeriodicalId":46647,"journal":{"name":"Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":"47 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142199575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, many individuals with autism and/or intellectual disabilities find this skill difficult to acquire. Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) is one approach that combines recommended reading elements (e.g., phonics, fluency, and comprehension) with evidence-based teaching strategies to support the development of reading skills. The first aim of this systematic review (PROSPERO: CRD42021253686) was to identify CAI reading programs and their effectiveness for individuals with autism and/or intellectual disability. A second aim was to evaluate the views and experiences of those with autism and/or intellectual disability, their teachers, and other stakeholders about CAI reading programs. Electronic searches of 7 databases identified a total of 3539 records for review, with 262 full-text articles evaluated, and 47 papers included in the review for data extraction and quality appraisal. The review identified both single-component and multicomponent CAI reading programs that were commercially available interventions (e.g., Headsprout^©, ABRACADABRA) and bespoke interventions (e.g., personalized e-books). Thirty-four of the 47 studies reported positive outcomes in terms of effectiveness. However, the quality of these studies was often poor, and the description of the interventions was often limited (e.g., rationale for the intervention, who delivered it and how), leading to concerns about the rigor of the evidence base. Stakeholders’ views and experiences were reported in half of the evaluated studies. CAI reading programs were reported as enjoyable and easy to use. They were considered effective by the stakeholders. Further research is needed to develop and explore the effectiveness of CAI reading interventions using rigorous study designs, so that individuals with autism and/or intellectual disability can be provided with access to a wider range of evidence-based reading programs.</p>","PeriodicalId":46647,"journal":{"name":"Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141193851","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
