Which activities could a caregiver actually sustain within a day's routine?

The study centers families' experience of trying activities in the home. Acceptability is an important question distinct from demonstrated child outcomes.

Who was studied?

Italian households evaluating the acceptability and use of a parent-mediated executive-function intervention.

Age / stage: Young children with Down syndrome

Read with three questions

  1. Did this part of the study assess enjoyment, implementation or a change in a child's skills?
  2. Which outcomes address feasibility and which would need a larger comparative trial?
  3. How much time or support did families need to sustain their participation?

Keep the limits in view

Preliminary work is informative about acceptability and delivery. Small or selected samples and limited follow-up restrict conclusions about effectiveness for other families.
