DESCRIPTION:In recent years there has been a shift of emphasis in autism i
 ntervention towards the involvement of parents. From intervention being se
 en as something that could only be undertaken by expert therapists directl
 y with the child\, it is now the case that “parent mediated therapy” (
 that is intervention with and through the parent of an autistic child) has
  some of the best evidence for long term developmental autism outcomes. Wh
 y should this be? I will outline the theoretical rationale for parent medi
 ated intervention and illustrate some of the scientific evidence supportin
 g it\; from basic science developmental studies to randomised controlled t
 rials of such interventions in the context of: i) babies with high likelih
 ood of autistic development\, ii) babies with early identified community c
 oncerns for later autism\, iii) children with a diagnosis of autism. I wil
 l present mechanistic studies which test the logic model of this form of i
 ntervention and in turn give important illumination about autistic develop
 ment itself. I will suggest how this work can feed into new integrated\, p
 roactive and developmentally focused autism care pathways in early childho
 od.
