Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of art therapy for 9 children with autism spectrum disorder in India using a pre–post experimental design with a control group. The Childhood Autism Rating Scale was used to measure symptoms before and after 8 individual art therapy sessions, and changes in the children’s art development was also examined. Analysis of covariance results showed that art therapy was effective and content analysis of the drawings indicated progress seen in the developmental art stages, based on Lowenfeld theory. The positive changes were notable in the participants’ cognitive, social, and motor skills.
