	abstract = {OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this investigation was to determine whether hippotherapy increased function and participation in children with autism spectrum disorder  (ASD). We hypothesized improvements in motor control, which might increase adaptive  behaviors and participation in daily activities. METHOD: Six children with ASD ages  5-12 participated in 12 weekly 45-min hippotherapy sessions. Measures pre- and  post-hippotherapy included the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales-II and the Child  Activity Card Sort. Motor control was measured preintervention and postintervention  using a video motion capture system and force plates. RESULTS: Postural sway  significantly decreased postintervention. Significant increases were observed in  overall adaptive behaviors (receptive communication and coping) and in participation  in self-care, low-demand leisure, and social interactions. CONCLUSION: These results  suggest that hippotherapy has a positive influence on children with ASD and can be a  useful treatment tool for this population.},
