Parent Interview Content Area and Sample Questions

Content Area	Sample Question
Autism literacy	When you started treatment with your child’s therapist, how much did you know about autism spectrum disorder?
Personal experience with mental health services	Was there anything that surprised you about what counseling/therapy looked like when your therapist started using AIM HI?
Experience and perceptions regarding parental participation in child’s treatment.	One of the features of AIM HI therapy is that it includes parent participation. How did you feel about that?
Factors influencing parental participation in child’s treatment.	What do you think could make a parent uncomfortable about participating in therapy? In your experience, what is the most uncomfortable part of participation?
Impact of personal or family characteristics on treatment	Is there anything about your cultural background that is important for your child’s therapist to know?
Feedback about AIM HI intervention materials	I now want to discuss materials that can be used in treatment. We are interested in getting parents’ perspectives on the type of materials that might be used in session and the format in which they are presented.
