    Mandala drawing therapy was investigated for its effects on social interaction and communication skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

  • 2

    The study involved 23 children with ASD, divided into an experimental group receiving Mandala therapy and a control group receiving standard rehabilitation.

  • 3

    Results indicated significant within-group improvements in language, communication, and social skills for the experimental group post-intervention.

  • 4

    No statistically significant improvements were observed in the control group, nor were there significant between-group differences after the intervention.

  • 5

    Mandala drawing therapy may enhance social communication skills in children with ASD but does not provide a significant advantage over standard rehabilitation alone.
