Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
The primary outcome of this study is the quantitative operalisation of 1 of the top 10 goals. These are behaviour indicators, observable and measurable behaviour of the child. The envisioned goal is a ‘small’ goal for which it is expected that within a short time observable and measurable behaviour can be seen. A number of relevant behaviour indicators are created that make clear how the child behaves in the context of the goal. These indicators will be created with help of a professional in the area of therapy and education for children with autism.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
The secondary outcome are the experiences of the professionals (who are present at the sessions) with respect to reaching the goals. This is a qualitative reflection to (better) understand (the context of) why the children behave as they do. To reach more insight into the factors that are important in (not) reaching the goals.	—
