What is the number of recommended hours of intervention per week?
孩子的干预计划需要多少小时？
Many research studies have documented the effectiveness of intensive behavior interventions for ASD. Ivar Lovaas (1987) demonstrated that children receiving 40 hrs per week (for at least 2 years) of intensive behavior intervention made significantly larger gains than those receiving only 10 hrs per week. Furthermore, almost half of the children receiving intensive behavioral intervention achieved outcomes that placed them in the normal range of intellectual, communication, and adaptive functioning.
许多研究已经记录了强化行为分析干预对自闭症的有效性。Ivar Lovaas（1987）证明，每周接受40个小时（至少2年）强化行为分析干预的孩子比每周仅接受10个小时的孩子受益更多。此外，几乎一半接受强化行为干预的儿童取得了成果，使他们处于智力、沟通和适应功能的“正常”范围内。
