| description | This multiple case study explores the social-emotional challenges and differences experienced by children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), emphasizing the need for tailored interventions and support systems. The study draws on in-depth interviews with five parents of autistic children in Malaysia, all of whom are receiving equine therapy. Through thematic analysis, key differences were identified across four main areas: emotional regulation, social communication, self-regulation, and behavioral control. The findings highlight the critical need for early intervention programs that nurture social-emotional competence. By capturing the lived experiences of both children and their families, this study contributes to the growing body of literature on ASD and offers valuable insights to inform more empathetic and effective support strategies. |
