Parents' use of complementary health approaches for young children with autism spectrum disorder.
Researchers conducted a study to better understand factors influencing parents' decision to use complementary health approaches (CHA) for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). CHA use was negatively associated with older child age and positively associated with parents' belief ASD has major consequences and medication use. Nine themes help explain these results.

Use and nondisclosure of complementary health approaches among US children with developmental disabilities.
The researchers aimed to profile the use and nondisclosure of complementary health approaches (CHAs) among US children with developmental disabilities (DDs). They found that nearly one-quarter (23 percent) of US children with DDs used CHAs. Among those with a personal health provider, 42 percent of parents did not disclose some or all CHAs used to the child's provider.
