Abstract

The training and workshop of Independent Intervention Program (Program Intervensi Mandiri or PIM) aim at raising the awareness of parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and giving them skills to design their own independent intervention program. These objectives are based on the fact that many parents have not comprehended their children’s condition, making them unable to give attention and teach their children according to their needs. This research is intended to determine a difference in parents’ cognitive skills, before and after the PIM training and workshop, and is a quasi-experiment study. The result of the study shows that parents’ cognitive skill has significantly improved, particularly on the comprehension aspects of ASD, social skill and its intervention, and intervention program itself. In addition to this, parents’ educational background or level does not affect the success of PIM training for their children.
