Objective
To explore and identify parenting online education for parents with autism spectrum disorder children. This review was carried
out according to preferred reporting items for systematic review and meta-analyses (PRISMA).
Methods
Search engines such as Google Scholar, MEDLINE, and PubMed search for observational studies conducted from 2011 to
2021. The keywords involved in the literature search were online parenting education or module, online parenting, parents with
autism spectrum disorder (ASD) children, and parents with special needs children.
Results
About 41,417 articles were screened, and 753 duplicate articles were removed. Only three studies were included in this systematic
review, as those papers investigated online parenting education for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder. This study
found a strong association between online parenting education and the improvement of parents’ parenting skills in managing
their children with ASD. However, due to the lower number of studies yielded for this review, there is still insufficient information
and data to conclusively support the findings.
Conclusion
Further research is recommended to explore this area of study to provide more concrete evidence on the effectiveness of online
parenting education among parents with special needs children that emphasizes parenting skills.
