Study Summary

This study is a 4-year randomized, controlled trial comparing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to usual clinical care for children (aged 6-14 years) with autism and emotional dysregulation (e.g., irritability, anxiety). We will randomly assign 50 mental health clinicians, each treating 2 youth (N = 100 youth total), to CBT program for emotional dysregulation and core autism symptoms with weekly live consultation with an expert or to usual clinical care augmented by self-instruction in CBT, in a 1:1 allocation. The CBT manual is well-supported in our efficacy research, has been replicated in other centers, is free/open-access (meya.ucla.edu), and has user-friendly digital and traditional print materials for mental health clinicians (e.g., psychologists, counselors) to use in preparing for and conducting therapy sessions. The primary outcome measure will be assessed weekly. Additional assessments will occur at Screening, Mid-treatment, Post- treatment and 3-month Follow-up.

Primary Outcome

The BPM (Achenbach et al., 2011) is an abbreviated version of the widely used Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL; Achenbach \& Rescorla, 2001). The sum of the parent-report BPM Internalizing and Externalizing subscales will be utilized as the primary outcome measure in this study to index improvement across core aspects of children's mental health (i.e., anxiety, irritability, depressed mood, defiance). The BPM is comprised of 19 items. Each item is rated 0 = not true, 1 = somewhat true, or 2 = very
