AbstractMany academics working in the field of education have written about children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and its variant, specifically Asperger’s Syndrome. This research aims to analyze and assess the studies and psycho-pedagogical actions developed to understand the actual experience of the families around the stress derived from the presence of a child with ASD. To this end, the strategies used by the families to deal with this situation should be assessed. This paper presents a systematic review based on an exhaustive search in key databases involving a total of 16 updated studies, published between 2010 and 2020, and a selection process that looked at results from five perspectives: causes of stress, strategies used by fathers, mothers, and siblings to manage the stress, more frequent intervention models, and the importance of the family–school relationship in coping with the reality and needs of these children.

Barriers To Physical Activity

Background: The aims of this review were to describe exercise interventions, facilitators, and barriers to physical activity for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder. Methods: A systematic review of the literature, appraising the validity of each article with Melnyk and Fineout-Overholt’s level of evidence, from different databases CINAHL, Cochrane, PsycINFO, PubMed, ProQuest, and Web of Science between 2000 and 2020 was conducted. As the initial search revealed no articles on exercise interventions and only 2 articles with children with autism spectrum disorder, the aim was widened to all parents of children. Results: Forty-five articles were identified on barriers to physical activity including being the primary caregiving parent, perception of guilt and selfishness, and adhering to exercise programs they do as part of research, once research ends. Facilitators for physical activity including parents being more likely to exercise if they can bring their child with them and parents preferring exercise that is a lifelong habit, such as walking. Conclusions: Due to the lack of research on parents of children with autism spectrum disorder, recommendations include development and testing of interventions for parents of children with this condition including family-based exercise interventions where children and parents have a choice to exercise together.
