They were assessed with Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) in baseline and the end of 6th month. Results In study group,the total score and factor scores of perception,interview,motion,language and self-care in ABC on the end of 6th month after treatment were significantly lower than that in baseline(P0.05 or P0.01). On the end of 6th month after treatment,the total and factor scores of ABC in study group were significantly lower than that in control group(P0.05). Conclusion The structured teaching could alleviate the symptoms of children with autism.
