Popis: This case study emphasises the importance of early intervention in children with autism spectrum disorder. The Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) is introduced and the process of the early intervention programme is described. This case study presents a case of a 3-year-old boy with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), who participated in the ESDM early intervention programme for 9 months. Before the early intervention programme, severe autism symptoms were present, including limited communication skills and delayed development. During the psychological assessment after 9 months of the early intervention programme, improvement in all developmental domains was observed and the symptoms of ASD were assessed as moderate.
