Methods： Sixty children with autism were divided into a treatment group and a control group with 30 cases in each group. Children in the treatment group were treated with electroacupuncture and behavior therapy, and children in the control group with behavior therapy. The adaptive behavior quotient （ABQ） and the effects were evaluated with adaptive behavior scale before and after treatments. Results： After treatments, ABQ in the treatment group was higher than before treatments （P〈0.05）, and the difference （6.15＋5.412） was higher than that in the control group （3.20_＋4.348） with a significant difference （P〈0.05）. The adaptive behavior ability in the treatment group was better than that in the control group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion： Electroacupuncture combining with behavior therapy can significantly improve the adaptive behavior ability in children with autism.展开更多
