Professionals' reported provision and recommendation of psychosocial interventions for youth with autism spectrum disorder.

This study highlights the usefulness of examining not only provision of services but also recommendation/referral practices: professionals are important sources of information for families. Implications of the results are discussed in terms of the importance of disseminating intervention information to professionals and the need for consensus on terminology used to classify interventions and on criteria used to evaluate intervention efficacy.
