Develop a "Carpet Weaving" Plan for Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder

The use of arts and handicrafts with the aim of education and rehabilitation for individuals with special needs has a history of about half a century. Although, the carpet industry has not yet been utilized for these purposes. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of carpet waving in improving cognitive and social skills, as well as the quality of life for individuals with autism. To achieve this goal, it is crucial to develop and validate a carpet plan according to the cognitive and behavioral characteristics of adolescents with autism.
