Abstract

This study is motivated by the limited knowledge of teachers in creating visual support programs for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). It is essential for teachers to increase their knowledge base in creating programs specifically designed for ASD children. Therefore, this study aims to empirically examine the effect of a visual support program to increase the knowledge of teachers in creating visual support programs for ASD children using a pre-experiment with one group pretest-post test design. The participants are nine teachers of ASD children, and non-parametric statistical analysis is conducted to test the difference in knowledge scores before and after administering the program. The results show that the visual support programs effectively increases the knowledge of teachers in making visual support with sig. .01 and effect size of 72%.

Abstract

Parental participation is crucial in developing early literacy skills in children, but publication on the combined contributions of both fathers and mothers remains limited. Therefore, this study aims to investigate how parental motivational beliefs, subjective norms, and perceived life context influence participation in early literacy activities, with parental expectations serving as a mediating factor. Anchored in Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB), the analysis adopted dyadic method through Actor-Partner Interdependence Mediation Model (APIMeM), which examined both individual and partner effects. A time-lagged design was conducted with 507 father-mother dyads (N = 1014) across 10 kindergartens in Surabaya, Indonesia. The instruments used were carefully adapted to ensure cultural relevance and validity. The results showed that motivational beliefs, social norms, and perceived life context significantly predicted parental participation, with expectations mediating these relationships. This study underscored the importance of considering both parental psychosocial factors to strengthen early literacy support at home and guide the design of family-focused interventions.
