Study Summary
This randomized control trial (RCT) seeks to assess the mechanisms underlying Therapeutic Horseback Riding's (THR) previously observed significant positive effects on ASD youth, particularly those with co-occurring psychiatric disorders, and to refine information on the durability, dose and sub-population effects of the intervention.
Primary Outcome
The ABC-C is a 58-item caregiver-completed symptom checklist of 5 behavior subscales (i.e. Irritability, Lethargy, Stereotypy, Hyperactivity, Inappropriate Speech) capturing problem behaviors of children and adults with developmental disabilities in community settings on each subscale. THIS MEASURE DOES NOT GENERATE A TOTAL SCORE. Subscale symptom presence and severity scores range from 0 "not a problem" to higher scores indicating more severe problems. The Irritability subscale scores can range
