Course Description

Recent estimates show 1 in 36 children meet diagnostic criteria for autism spectrum disorder.Autistic individuals tend to be at a higher risk for engaging in problem behaviors, such as aggression, tantrums, and self-injury, than their typically developing peers. Unfortunately, there is little evidence showing the effectiveness of psychotropic medications. Caregivers often turn to alternative options, with CBD being one of the more common choices. Although, peer-reviewed case studies show the potential benefit of CBD, there have been no rigorous clinical trials of the benefits and side effects of the drug. The CBD in Autism Spectrum Disorder (CASCADE) clinical trial conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized control trial of the effect of CBD on problem behaviors in autistic children. A subset of participants chose to undergo three functional analyses of problem behavior conducted via telehealth in their homes. FAs occurred at baseline (prior to drug administration), after being on the maximum dose of CBD, and after being on the maximum dose of placebo drug. Results showed a greater proportional decrease in problem behavior when participants took CBD compared to the placebo drug. These data will be discussed in terms of the potential benefits of CBD as an intervention to reduce problem behavior in autistic children. The course was excellent. The instructor was professional, his presentation was clear and the information shared was valuable to the ABA community. If you are a professional with clients utilizing CBD or interested in utilizing CBD, you will find this course very edifying.
