Abstract
This non-randomized controlled trial compared the effectiveness of online versus inperson therapeutic interventions for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Three groups were examined: ASD In-Person (n=100), ASD Online (n=100), and a neurotypical control group (n=100). Results showed significant improvements across multiple developmental domains, including communication, fine motor, and social skills in both intervention groups. While both online and in-person therapies yielded comparable results, the in-person group showed slightly greater effectiveness in communication outcomes. This study supports the viability of online therapy as an accessible and effective alternative to traditional in-person interventions for children with ASD.
